The 11-bedroom, 7.5-bathroom townhouse at 70 Willow Street had its price slashed to $15.9 million in June, according to Streeteasy.com, and it has now been lowered even more, to $14.995 million.
The property is listed with Karen Heyman and Alan Heyman, both of Sotheby’s International Realty. [Curbed]
