Central Park Tower Duplex Listed for $150M … Again

It’s deja vu all over again for a sponsor unit at Extell Development’s Central Park Tower.

The duplex spanning the 127th and 128th floors of Gary Barnett’s Midtown West condominium building is on the market for $150 million, according to a listing on StreetEasy.

That breaks down to $13,043 per square foot for the 11,500-square-foot unit. It’s not the most expensive listing at the building, though, as there’s a $195 million penthouse available, down from its initial ask of $250 million.

The eight-bedroom, nine-and-a-half bathroom sponsor unit is back on the market after three years off — with the same $150 million asking price.

The duplex — the highest at 217 West 57th Street — was listed for the same amount in August 2021, only to be pulled from the market three months later. Corcoran had the listing at the time.

Shlomi Reuveni of Reuveni Development Marketing and Christie’s International Real Estate Group have the joint listing. Representatives for Reuveni did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Dubbed “Sky House” in the listing, the duplex has a private reception hall, 39-foot gallery, library and observatory. It is nearly 1,400 feet above the ground and has both a private elevator for access and a glass-enclosed staircase to move between the two floors.

Amenities at the world’s tallest residential tower include private swimming pools, a private theater and a sundeck and cabana with food and beverage service.

Sales at the 1,550-foot-tall tower began in 2018, two years before construction wrapped. Closings began in February 2021 and Barnett’s projected sellout was $4 billion, though the following year he acknowledged it would likely be closer to $3 billion.

If the duplex sells for its $150 million listing price — or anywhere close to that — Barnett will be breaking a personal record.

The developer previously claimed a price peak in January, when a duplex 20 floors below the latest listing sold for $115 million. Barnett hailed it as the most expensive residence sold at the property, despite a series of price cuts. First listed for $175 million, the unit was eventually repriced at $149.5 million before selling for more than $30 million off that.
