Zeckendorf — who developed the “limestone Jesus” with his brother, Arthur — snagged the unit for the deeply discounted price of $10.84 million in 2008. He later paid $29.1 million for a co-op at 927 Fifth Avenue.

The three-bedroom has 13-foot ceilings and a 13-foot by 11-foot terrace. The asking price works out to $13,667 per foot, according to a listing provided by Douglas Elliman’s Noble Black.
