At 15 CPW, second D-line unit on the market

At 15 Central Park West (left), unit 35D (right) is on the market.
A second D-line apartment at 15 Central Park West is available for resale within several weeks of the first one going on the market.
The three-bedroom, 3,173-square-foot unit 35D is on the market for $26 million, according to Streeteasy.com. Donald Opartny, a partner at Goldman Sachs, purchased the unit in January 2008 for $11.6 million.
Brown Harris Stevens' John Burger, a senior vice president and managing director, and Richard Wallgren, a BHS vice president, have the listing. Burger declined to comment on the unit, saying he is under a confidentiality agreement for the listing.
Several recent attempted flips at 15 Central Park West have been blocked by the economy. A resale penthouse saw a $32.5 million price cut in October, to $47.5 million from $80 million. Unit 2C closed for $11 million, below its original $16.5 million asking price, according to city records.
D-line apartments in the Robert A.M. Stern-designed building face northeast and have Central Park views on three sides, making them particularly desirable, Prudential Douglas Elliman Associate Broker Andre Rouch, who has the listing for 25D, told The Real Deal earlier this month.

Come on guys! The economy has stopped these attempts. I am all for making what you can but these are so badly priced it is insane. Is there something about these units the public doesn't know about- say gold buried under the floorboards

There are 20 units for sale and 13 units for rent in this building at this time. Why?

People want to look to up at Harlem and the east side as a view? Hopefully a dumb international person will buy it.

As a broker for 25 years, I at first thought that this building with its A list tenants, somehow represented a store of value, but I was wrong. Its terrific, but just like any other building

At first I thought the initial buyers were purchasing to actually live there permanently, but now it appears that either they intended to flip, or, the economy is negatively affecting them, just like everyone else
