William Zeckendorf’s 15 CPW penthouse sale to set new city record

15 Central Park West

William Zeckendorf’s own 15 Central Park West penthouse is in contract for $40 million, or a record $10,259 a foot, according to the Post. That’s a per-square-foot residential real estate record for the city, the paper said, besting the $10,151 per square foot that Kazakhstani Bolat Nazarbaev — brother of the country’s president — paid for his apartment at The Plaza in 2008. The 41st-floor condo has three-bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms and a litany of famous neighbors including Sting, Alex Rodriguez and Kelsey Grammer. Zeckendorf, who lives in the apartment, paid his development company $10.7 million for it during the building’s pre-construction stage in 2005. [Post]
