Roubini picks up $5.45M East Village condo
“Dr. Doom” economist Nouriel Roubini has picked up a $5.45 million unit in the Brick House Condominiums at 6 East 1st Street between Second Avenue and the Bowery, according to Bloomberg. The three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom apartment — which features a 50-bottle wine refrigerator and wrap terrace — was listed by Halstead Property’s Richard Orentstein. The 3,600-square-foot unit has had a tumultuous history on the market, according to Streeteasy.com. The unit was first listed in November 2006 for $5.35 million, before its asking price grew incrementally to $7.35 million in September 2008. The apartment was briefly pulled off the market in February of this year, before being relisted in April. [Bloomberg]
