    For less than 10% of the price, you could own a large historic castle in Europe surrounded by a huge parc, with your own river and forrest maybe. A nice and quiet place to raise your children or to retire. This 150 M$ flat on Billionaire's row will probably remain empty forever, purchased as an investment by some wealthy Middle-East guy who will spend no more than a weekend there every year.

    What's odd about the pricing to the apartments is that you could buy a full floor apartment a few floors down for about $100m less than this. You could buy 2 for less than $100m and 3 for less than the price of this current penthouse. So the logical thing I would do, if I was the billionaire trying to buy this or the penthouse above is, but 2-3 full floor apartments and combine them. With the bottom floor being entertainment and spa area only. You could have a full gym, swimming pool, steam room on one side and then a home cinema, bowling alley an arcade or billiards room on the other. It would be like a great party section. You clearly will have enough space to do all that, on one floor. Considering if you go further down, you can see how much space there is to fit so many different things. So that's the bottom floor done. The middle floor can be living space only, or keep it the exact same, if you plan on only buying two full story apartments. But if not, the middle can be living space only. With two kitchens. One for the chef and then the top floor can be bedrooms only. You could do all that and spend less than $150m. I know a person who has already done that. Not sure if it was 2 or 3 but one of the apartments came with 1 or 2 outdoor terrace. So that was a better purchase for them. What's also crazy is, you're still so high up with unobstructive 360 views of New York City, New Jersey and you could even apparently see 4 more states, with one of them being Connecticut and the others probably being Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Delawere and Maryland maybe

And the casual chat with the window washer? That was such a cool, human touch. It really shows the unique blend of luxury and everyday life in NYC.

      I couldn't agree more. The ceiling is so high yet the rooms are so small. Grand Salon doesn't feel grand at all. Even the master bedroom is smaller than one in my home, and I don't even live in house but condo in Toronto just like this one (I see it's called apartment in US). I think they could just go with 5 bedrooms and give them more space. I'm aware of that NYC land cost is freaking expensive but I find penthouse units in Miami Sunny Isle Beach have a lot better designs for 1/5 price. For this price, one can only expect the luxury and space. But nothing seems luxurious in this penthouse unit other than the view, and spaces are wasted by poor design.
      Also, I couldn't help but laugh at the amenities. For example, the theater has decent seats and chairs but the screen is so small. Then there's a conference room right next to a tween room. A basketball hoops at the side of glass door and that room is pretty close to salon and massage therapy room which requires absolute tranquility. Think about all those noise problems. They probably thought sports and spas go together since they are all categorized in wellness, but they haven't thought through what it's like to be in actual use...unless what they really expected was no one will actually live there but some people will buy it as investment

They mostly tour homes that are on the market and not random ones suggested by the viewers. Especially if the owner of the property doesn't want their property to be toured. Like the former 50 cent residence. But a tour of that home is available on that one episode of MDLNY.
