THE $100 MILLION HOME:
Mystery buyer drops staggering amount on palatial 57th St. apartment as deal sets city record

It’s the crown jewel of ‘Billionaires’ Row.’
A palatial apartment on 57th St. has broken the record for the most expensive apartment ever sold in Manhattan
A mystery buyer dropped a staggering $100.47 million on the penthouse apartment, which occupies the entire 89th and 90th floors of One57, the high-end apartment tower overlooking Central Park at 157 W. 57th St., according to city records.
The property is the first single-family home to sell for more than $100 million in the city’s history.
Experts said the deal will likely be the first in several transactions to top $100 million as a result of the recent luxury development boom in Manhattan.
The penthouse at a new tower going up at 520 Park Ave. is slated to hit the market with a price tag of $130 million later this year.
