Writer Toni Morrison picks up $3.8M Tribeca pad

Nobel and Pulitzer prize-winning novelist Toni Morrison picked up a three-bedroom condominium at Tessler Development’s 66 Leonard Street.

The 2,300-square-foot loft space went for $3.8 million, the New York Post reported. The posh pad boasts views of The Empire State Building And Building Amenities Such As A Rooftop Terrace, children’s play area, fitness center, media room and garden courtyard.
