Yoko Ono’s West Village penthouse co-op — which was asking $8.99 million — has entered contract amid the artist’s court battle with the co-op board.

In a $6.6 million lawsuit filed last month, Ono alleged that the board hampered her attempts to sell her penthouse in the building at 49 Downing Street, which she owns but does not live in.
