Jeff Bezos To Pay $80 Million For Manhattan Penthouse And Two Apartments Underneath
ByJoseph Gibsonon June 12, 2019inArticles›Billionaire News
The penthouse at the top of 212 Fifth Avenue has three floors on its own, so the purchase of the additional two units directly below the penthouse means Bezos is sure to have plenty of space – 12 bedrooms and a reported 17,000 square feet in all, all overlooking Manhattan’s 26th Street Madison Square Park.
Paying $80 million is a lot for an apartment, even in Manhattan. One source told WSJ that the $80 million deal is the most expensive real estate transaction in New York so far this year, with one exception: the highly publicized $240 million buy from billionaire real estate fiend Ken Griffin .
As 212 Fifth Avenue is one of the most prestigious properties in Manhattan, Bezos won’t be wanting for amenities during his time there. The property itself is outfitted with a fitness center, game room, high tech golf simulator, and a private film screening room. As for the penthouse itself, it’s appropriately known as “The Crown,” and features five bedrooms, several huge terraces, and even a private elevator for getting from one of the penthouse’s three floors to another.
