Schiffer, a managing director at Column Financial, Credit Suisse’s commercial real estate lending business. The five-bedroom house in the Treadwell Farm Historic District east of Third Avenue included at least nine sets of bookshelves and a gentleman’s dressing room that Scorsese added to the master suite. Scorsese reportedly paid $1.75 million for the property 20 years ago. more [NYO]
