The 249 Central Park West mansion was picked up by the aptly named Central Park West LLC, according to city records cited by Curbed.

The property’s previous owner paid $14.4 million for the turreted, 10,014-squre-foot manse back in 2006. The digs boast expansive park views and contain many of the historic property’s original details, such as carved mahogany mantles, a fully-paneled dining room and Tiffany-era stained glass windows on every floor. It had also been offered as a rental for $50,000 a month. [Curbed]Julie Strickland
