An East Village apartment is back on the market for an eye-popping $25 million ($3,704 per square foot), possibly making it the neighborhood’s most expensive apartment ever.
The third-floor apartment at 210 East 5th Street is currently owned by Canadian photographer/filmmaker Gregory Colbert. Colbert previously listed the apartment in 2012 with the same price tag and a different broker, the New York Post reported. Douglas Elliman’s 
Richard Steinberg and Matthew Slosar are handling the listing this time around.
The next most expensive apartment in the East Village is a six-bedroom townhouse at 114 East 10th Street for just under $8 million, according to StreetEasy.
Colbert’s apartment spans 6,750 square feet, has 32-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling exposed brick and 800 square feet of outdoor space. The building, known as Beethoven Hall, was formerly a concert space and now has four apartments. [NYP] — Kathryn Brenzel
