[@MB-rn6gh]

its been empty for 3 years... get the hint, its too much money

[@joyusa3182]

+Earla Weese you are seriusly not even trying to go up in life if you still on minimum wage

[@momentary_]

+i throw rocks at blind kids Automation is gonna take over all jobs whether we raise minimum wage or not. It is inevitable. Machines will be performing jobs for pennies an hour (basically just the cost of initial cost, maintenance and electricity). This is no way for humans to compete with that kind of efficiency.

[@mluqman]

i throw rocks at blind kids that's the issue, too many people's actual jobs are min wage and they have to raise a family with that money

[@jjcs9238]

Eh depends. Some people buy to sell.

[@mouzouki]

Not that great for $70M...There's no wow factor.

[@anniebanana3698]

@mouzouki That's exactly what I was thinking... it's weird because it seems like it should have everything for that price and yet it's the most bland and uninspiring place I have ever seen in that price range.

[@19inkorrect91]

mouzouki there are mansions in other states way cheaper than 70M and looks like a palace.

[@renegaderaida526]

You're paying for the view of the Chrysler and Empire state.

[@wrathlandsx5339]

It's really boring to look at I agree. The wow factor is the pool but like every luxury homes have pools lol

[@wrathlandsx5339]

RenegadeRaida Lol true but if you're banking $70 million pretty sure youd be too busy to look at the empire state 😂

[@Specnon45]

Whoever buys this must be a lunatic imo. I understand its in NYC, but still this price is ridiculous.

[@kevindonelan6680]

lex t nobody cares!!!

[@maxvardy4534]

Try London. It has an amazing atmosphere (yes I have lived in London) but is not a "pretty city". And is about has expensive if not more

[@tekalimusic9363]

Specnon45 if you're rich and can afford it, pretty sure you'll buy it, for me if i was i would because its worth it idk my opinion only

[@graziahorsen2511]

Max Vardy London is stunning! On day time is even better than NY! on night time.. Well, no city is better than New York on night :)

[@politicalstatus197]

You could build this apartment complex for less than 70 million dollars.

[@zackspencer2179]

Would rather buy 10 $7mill homes around the world than this

[@thiaguinhogameplays]

yeah makes sense 7 mil around the world can get some amazing shit, specially that most houses aren't even 7mil theyre way cheaper

[@justrandomthings319]

The people that can afford this apartment already own 20 $10 million houses around the world. You don't understand the way wealth works. It gets to a point where they have so much money, they decide to buy a 12th Lamborghini just for driving to the golf course.

[@wylinout]

Any apartment that is priced at 70 million is overpriced. That kind of money can get you a 50,000 sqare foot home in L.A with a full view of the city. The words "apartment" and " 70 million" do not correlate in the slightest. Maybe worth 10 million in my eyes because it can view 2 historical buildings in the city

[@Alex-of3if]

Hayden Roberts I agree definitely.

[@Brownie8986]

Jason 70 million dollars can get you a house and in some states, one large lot of land to boot yes, but California as a whole is actually still more expensive as far as cost of living than New York so if you can afford to spend 70 mil for anything, then it's truly whatever you want it to be. whether it be a family estate or a pied-a-terre to call your own. they make them because there's an exclusive market for them.

[@kayhallema2136]

Jason i love your idea about how to spend 70 million us dollars i think that i'm going to do it in real life🤣

[@johnoni5166]

some billionaire will buy it eventually. it's a matter of time.

[@strangeguy5667]

[@user-hp3gt8zt5q]

[@marcusa4193]

bigbudha168 they did a study on NYC smog its very smoggy its just it is a different kind of smog

[@faisalsalam4161]

Richard Beckett real estate is very expensive in New York. There is a reason it's worth 70 million.

[@richardbeckett7792]

bigbudha168 are you sure about that, "kid"? maybe you should do a quick google search that will in fact tell you about the smog and pollution in NYC. they say NYC has some of the worst smog pollution in the country, so i'm not sure where you get your information from but these are scientific fact based studies

[@Rascallucci]

Way overpriced. $25 mil can easily get you a very, very nice top notch, jazzy contemporary Hollywood mansion in Beverly Hills or Bel Air of around 10,000 sq ft. While I fully understand and appreciate NYC properties are more expensive, still is hard to justify a penthouse costing close to 3 times the price of that.

[@unclefkr711]

What if the person doesn't want to live in hollywood? Ever thought about that?

[@Rascallucci]

The point is not about whether you want to live in Hollywood. Is about the size and quality of the houses. By and large, NYC just can't match it.

[@drkInxgud]

you need to look at price/feet of this property and properties around this place to know if it is overpriced.

[@mten1454]

People that buy penthouses in NYC want a totally different lifestyle than people who buy mansions in Beverly Hills.

[@rousseau327]

Jesus you idiots, his point isn't NYC vs. LA, it's $25 million vs. $70 million

[@flossytoofly9658]

It's nice but : 1. The Price is way to high even for NYC 2. The Room Split up is not thought trough 3. A Pool ? we all know that the East Coast isn't that warm even on a sunny day so- 4. It has been empty for 3 Years, and that says it all

[@GF-wf8rt]

Roman O Actually a fuck ton of people can afford this lmao

[@grumpypear5888]

Far too expensive. I think what would also put off potential buyers is that anyone in the buildings opposite would be able to see you through those huge windows. You talk about privacy, and the "private" pool, but, again, anyone in the other buildings could see you.

[@justinn5047]

GrumpyPear by private they mean for the people living there

[@unclefkr711]

If you can afford a multi million dollar home you can afford to buy glass that you can see out but no one can see in. And that is assuming it isn't pre installed anyways.

Extremely overpriced. 70 million and the view, while being ok, is but not the best. Not even the 100th best in NYC. Get a clue, no one is buying this apartment, that's BEEN EMPTY FOR 3 YEARS.

[@breakingnews2664]

One word: "OVERPRICED" this is price gouging at its finest. Realistically, id say about 10-15 million, def not 70. They are betting some Saudi or middle eastern oil heir to buy this.

10 million dollars LMAO! with a private pool on the top two floors. Yes, the apt is overpriced, but 10 million good lord hahaha. thats maybe an apt on bond street or an apt overlooking union square and not nearly the sq footage (this thing im assuing is the one thats 9700 sq ft!) LOL 10 million dollars.

[@cordeliachase601]

Not even most celebrities could afford this. Maybe a billionaire. But how many billionaires really want this anyway when they have their own homes? Have fun watching these rooms turn to dust and forgotten.

[@martinc.720]

Sara Milly Johnstone billionnaires have estates all around the world, and some of them want a place in cities they often visit (for business or else).

[@George-dk5mw]

funny you say that bc here, a lot of foreign money buys these types of places. Russians and Chinese are some key players in this market price range and they do buy and never even stay in it, so yes it will collect dust still even after it sells. And you're right more than most celebs cant afford this apt, maybe just a hand full like Floyd Mayweather, possibly Tom Cruise but even this would be a bank breaking purchase as the monthly taxes and building maintence are also going to set you back a month more than what most people make in a year. This is big boy money level.

[@kamilahlena]

[@martinc.720]

LENA PATEL they probably do, but I mean, with that many units in a single building, can you imagine the parking they would have to build to give people space for multiple cars,

[@tjrtt]

This particular apartment is definitely over priced. In NYC alone there are bigger apartments with even higher and more spectacular views than this one offers for less. The only people that will look at this apartment will be the Arab sheiks and Russian oligarchs looking to park their money in safe territory.

RTP hahahahahah Boston, yeah okay. Boston is a shit town with NOTHING to do and most people I know who went to school in Boston moved away. I'm from the NY area and moved to the Boston area. As does my boyfriends family who are from New England and half of his family lives out in NY. Boston is just as overpriced. You'll find a 1 bedroom home for about 4 million. You wanna know how I know that because my parents who are upper middle class tried finding a decent sized home out in the Boston area for 800,000 and and couldn't. The entire state is called taxachusetts for a reason. My boyfriends cousin who makes about 200k a year a pharmacist went to school in Boston and hated it! Wanna know where she moved to? New York City baby! How about my sisters best friends cousin who was Miss NJ USA, she went to school in Boston and when she graduated, she moved back to the NJ/NY area. Boston is a sleepy city, the bars close at 12, there's little to do, the roads are shit, the people are mean as hell, the men are ugly, it's extremely dark right when you come out of the city, it's not affordable. Babe trust me, I lived in Mass for several years and the NY/NJ area for half my life too. I know what I'm talking about. YOU do not! End of story. Have fun developing that awful Boston accent, it'll make you sound ghetto and uneducated. I'd even rather party in Philly than Boston any day. At least there's more than 3 clubs and there's no sports obsessed fat beer Irish wanna be guts hanging around. Bye bitch!

hey if you want to live in a sewer where the chief deplorable classless lying sociopath sewer rat came from .. go for it.. YOU CAN'T PAY ME TO LIVE IN NYC, NJ, OR PA. 2: GE, Johnson & Johnson, BOA, ABB, Morgan Stanley, and many Biotech & Pharma have moved OUT of NYC & NYC metro area due to the taxes, traffic , and cost of living! have or are process of moving to Boston. 3: Only idiots live in Mass , You see smart people live in NH where are there NO state income tax or sales tax on ANYTHING, The income tax NH residents pay to MA gets 96% returned to them thanks to an agreement between NH & MA. NH to Boston is 38 miles , 45 minute drive .... I paid $2.55 for super unleaded this morning in NH, In Boston it's $3.12, in NYC it's close to $4.00 or over. So yeah bend over and take it! Yes Boston is small , classy and clean , There is a lot to do , you just have to know what and where. Just because people are lazy and don't want to drive to do something does NOT mean it's a " shit hole" . Unlike NYC where you have to take a min of showers a day just from walking the streets ANYWHERE in that discussing city from all the smog, dirt, dust flying around. So with all due respect.... pull your he'd out of your ass before opening your mouth. Now if you want to compare taxes and cost of living.. NYC is #2 on the WSJ and CNBC list for highest cost of living and taxes, Where is boston? oh yes thats right #6 www.cnbc.com/2017/05/15/most-expensive-states-in-america.html and www.kiplinger.com/slideshow/real-estate/T006-S001-most-expensive-u-s-cities-to-live-in-2017/index.html so get your facts straight sweetheart because right now you look like an epic millennial fool.

[@ryanp135]

and oh by the way. FACT that NY income tax is 1.87 HIGHER, and NY sales tax is .67 HIGHER than " taxicusettes" , That isn't including the NYC income tax, NYC sales, NYC trash removal, NYC service tax, which makes your oh so great sewer rat city HIGHER than as you said " taxachusettes". Another FACT that CT income tax is 1% HIGHER , and sales tax is 1.5% HIGHER than what as you said " taxachusettes ". Again GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT before looking like a epic deplorable ignorant fool. If you want talk about homes... Here to you go... I have 5100 sq feet, on 2.87 acres, 4 car garage, geothermal heating and cooling, solar electric power, radiant floor heating , post and beam contemporary home, that is will be 3 years old , it cost me $778,750 to build it , property tax is the ONLY tax I pay which is on house and cars , house property tax this past year was $4180.71, Which includes trash pickup, water, sewer and twice a year I can put anything on the curb and they take it way . So again, your ignorance shines again.

Do They take section 8 😂😂😂

[@LizardHouse]

At less than 10,000 sq. ft., I wouldn't offer more than $35 million for this. They're asking way too much.

[@violetblue1251]

depends on whom you asked... someone who have 70million is either older people retired and prefer more quiet place or young startup boss who bought it but never really living in there.

[@MrTheuploader123]

eminem's mansion cost 4.5 Million Us Dollar, cheaper than this bullshit overpriced apartment

[@martinc.720]

Fazli cool story

[@rubeluddin87]

I would pay 80 million dollars for it

[@Mr._POV_]

For less than 2 mil you can get like a 100+ acres land with a castle built to move in. Plus extra cash to have fun

[@hlau4449]

i really like the sales lady, she is so calm and adorable

[@viksra]

This is not a $70 million apartment, this is a $40 million apartment. Nobody is going to pay your $70 million ask. Change the price to somewhere in the $40 million range and you will get a buyer

[@cordeliachase601]

viksra I'd say $500,000. Little space, not extraordinary looking, neighbors, small pool and wow a fireplace 🙄. Not even worth a million.

[@progressivephilosophy414]

viksra more like 10

[@TeddyLK]

If you can afford a $40 million appartment, you can afford a $70 million appartment. Your average billionaire couldn't care less about $30 million anyway, that's what he spends for a small Picasso painting while living in a $20 000 a week mansion in Monaco.

[@visionist7]

Sara Milly hmmm... Almost 10000 feet is small to you? lol

[@blueshots1236]

So I'm the first commenter....

[@jwx0078]

Frystical I guess I am the second commenter but one thing im sure about .. neither of us can afford this pretty place lol

[@blueshots1236]

You're right about that lol

[@just_cade]

For $70 million dollars, you can buy all 5 of the most expensive homes currently for sale in Atlanta, and still have enough to buy and fill a 10 car garage with whatever you want, plus pay all of your bills for the rest of your life.

[@smileychess]

Same amount would buy you a home on thirty thousand acres of land in Idaho that includes a river, lake, a huge forest you can make tons of money from timber. It includes a working profitable ranch, and land that's zoned for residential development. Anyone who has a spare 70 million dollars to spend is probably smart enough to know that cashflow land is better than a 2-story apartment with a view.

[@mitchparker7763]

Hoping one day my youtube channel will give me success to where I can live in a place like this :)

[@drecsanrazvan]

Successful Minds Im not very sure that this will happen but I suggest to work on other projects and I guarantee you will succeed. Goof luck brother

[@doctordaro2112]

With a KZbin Channel? Are you insane?

[@mitchparker7763]

yes

[@jamesparker9022]

But you make videos about how to triple incomes, something's not adding up....

[@vienryalvindobastian4645]

goodluck bro

[@casparduigon9050]

This is ridiculous even for manhattan, I saw a listing for an enormous townhouse on the upper east side for 25 million less. This is just stupid

[@marvelv212]

Building these type of homes for top 1% or less is a waste of space for planet Earth.

[@rhapsodise8216]

Do you get your own private elevator? How about a helicopter landing pad? Individual fire escape? Ultra sound proof walls? It looks like a plain apartment.

[@georgegharm750]

Only if I make billion dollar. If it's not happened, I never spend 70M for this dump.

[@kurta6179]

People saying this is too much don’t know shit about nyc

[@Gentleman2019]

If I had that kinda money, the last thing on my mind would be to live in an apartment! A cozy beach villa with a lush garden would be my dream home with plenty of $$$ to spare!

[@jackmeoff6826]

No one with that kind of money would spend it on an obviously bad investment, considering it hasn't sold in 3 years and they said there was an excess of luxury homes because of a real estate boom. I've seen videos of comparably nice homes in Manhattan for around 20 million

[@Rick2010100]

A pool at that high is nonsense in NYC, because it is to cold and windy for bathing.

[@dougrabbit8837]

Maybe 10-15 mill tops. I'm guessing the real owners (some large bank) would be more then happy to take that offer and unload this elephant!

[@frederik1604]

You can buy a penthouse in 56 Leonard For 2/3 the price and that condo is way way fucking nice than this one

[@filmkatonakino]

whats the annual maintenance of this? What comes to me as additional costs after I buy it for 70mil?

She said it will find a buyer in time... yea when the price is reduced down to 30 million

[@ambercash3429]

wow!that is beautiful and amazing i would love to see this penthouse in person and i have the hope and believe I will get it. ilove America

[@lucyroanapure4326]

I believe that this price is WAAAY too much. It's just people trying to swindle you out of your money.

[@guiT39]

It would be worth that price if it was in front of the Central Park. With full view. Right now it's currently for sale for $39.550.000, almost half the announcing price :)
