Clothing designer Betsey Johnson sold her two-bedroom penthouse apartment in Greenwich Village for $2.5 million, $1.1 million below its original asking price.
The sale of the 1,660-square-foot co-op unit at 45 Fifth Avenue to Kemal Askar closed in August, according to city records published today. The unit went on the market late last year for $3.6 million.
In May, Johnson bought an 850-square-foot apartment at 30 East 85th Street for $1.8 million.
