Ian Slater and Eduardo Martinez of Compass present a noteworthy property in NYC. This quad-plex penthouse, complete with a 24hr doorman, has officially hit the market for $6.9995M. The captivating 3,785 sq ft. property has a unique and fascinating history. Most notably, Britney Spears lived in the penthouse for four years during her "Toxic" era in the early 2000s. In the 80s, renowned singer/actress Cher also owned the home before selling it to record executive Russel Simmons in 1990. Located within the Silk Building, the home caters to just about every need and desire. The building, built-in 1908, holds 55 residences and was home to the original Tower Records store in the ’80s and ’90s.

While providing desired privacy in a townhouse-like structure, the home can be entered on any of the four levels, each unveiling a new surprise. The main level of the home, where the living/dining room and the chef’s kitchen can be found, features Sub Zero and Viking appliances. For optimum convenience, the main floor, with 12-foot high ceilings, also accommodates a powder room and a full-sized laundry room.

One of the highlights of this space is the outdoor terrace, which can be found on the top level along with the den. Out on the terraced roof, you’ll find stunning sunset views with the Empire State Building in sight. Even while on the unit’s other levels, you’ll be flooded with natural light and pleasant views from the large windows.

Located in the NoHo area of Manhattan, there is no shortage of entertainment and dining fit for any taste. Some common points of interest include Zero Bond, a members-only clubhouse, and a Miami-based restaurant, Kyu, which serves Asian barbeque.

In December of 2020, Emmy winning comedian and television host Trevor Noah purchased an expansive estate in Los Angeles’s Bel Air neighborhood for $27.5 million. The South African entertainer acquired the impressive abode from architect Mark Rios who initially designed the property for himself in 2014. The home had previously been listed on the market in 2018 asking as much as $36 million. In 2020, the asking price was reduced to $32.5 million then lowered once more to $29.5 million.

Now, “The Daily Show” host is bidding farewell to his newly purchased residence for $29.75 million only 10 months after purchased. Although it is currently unknown as to why Noah is so quickly selling the home, he has been linked to several other properties across the country. In 2019, he purchased a nearby mansion at $20.5 million before flipping it for $21.7 million last year. Noah has also owned a $10 million penthouse in Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen since 2017 and is currently renting a second residence in Tribeca for a reported $52,000 a month.

Noah’s former Bel Air abode spans a whopping 11,375 square feet with six bedrooms, eight full baths, and three half-baths. The expansive space evokes a Japanese inspired aesthetic and has been described as a “tranquil haven.” The interior floor plan features the living area with floor-to-ceiling glass doors and chef’s kitchen with bar seating, formal dining room, and den. The library, in particular, was fashioned after a room in Kyoto with the addition of heavy and dark timbers. Across the home, primary decorative elements consist of dark wood accents, light-filled spaces, and sweeping city views.

Upstairs, the master suite presents dual baths and spacious walk-in closets. The second floor also offers four additional ensuite bedrooms. Outside, the exterior space features a rooftop terrace, swimming pool, kitchen, and fire pit. Other luxe amenities of the Bel Air mansion include a gym, spa, office, screening room, motor court, and separate guest apartment.

Haute Residence continued its "Chat with Haute Residence Leaders" series with an exclusive one on one conversation featuring Vasco Borges: CEO of luxury private villa resort Beach Enclave.

He was hosted by Haute Media Group Cofounder Seth Semilof. Watch their conversation below.

The topics included Borges’ illustrious career from CFO of Grace Bay Resorts, Project Director for Water Cay Development, and his eventual ascendancy in luxury real estate as the CEO of Beach Enclave.

Vasco N F Borges has over 20 years of experience in luxury branding, real estate development, and hospitality. As the CEO of Beach Enclave, Borges raised funding, designed, developed, and is presently managing three private villa resorts. Founded in 2013, Beach Enclave is redefining Caribbean beachfront living by offering the privacy and seclusion of your own home with all resort amenities. Borges’ accolades include Best Caribbean development in 2017 by the International Property Awards, #1 Resort in Turks and Caicos by TripAdvisor, and highest average daily rate in Turks and Caicos.

Here are some of the questions and answers from the exclusive interview with Borges.

Seth Semilof: Tell us a little about how you went from college, growing up in Portugal, to the Caribbean.

Vasco Borges: It was absolutely by happenstance. I had done a more traditional career of economics, then I joined this consulting company called McKinsey. When you are a consultant, you get exposed to a lot of industries. There were a few options on the table. One of them was to join a restaurant group in Singapore and the other one was an opportunity to come to the Caribbean to work. I had never been to the Caribbean before, but they promised me a beachfront bedroom in a five star resort, so I came here. It was a vibrant place and I absolutely loved both the real estate and the hospitality component. That is why the idea of building something where people are going to leave with lifestyle experiences, but also hospitality was really, really exciting.

SS: I would love to learn how you came up with the game plan or strategy because you came out and built three different luxury villas. What transpired into that?

VB: At the time, if you wanted to own real estate in Turks and Caicos or the majority of the Caribbean islands, you could either on a condominium or a standalone home. I could not figure out why we could not combine both. You have the great things of a resort, which is all the amenities or services taking care for you, and combine that with the privacy of your home. You really just go in and it is ready for you. I could not convince my employer to do it at the time, so I decided to go in on my own.

SS: What makes Turks and Caicos so amazing? You have not chosen to go to any other Caribbean islands, just mainly stuck to Turks and Caicos.

VB: An amazing combination of things. It has an amazing infrastructure. It has US dollar, UK law, and above all, beautiful beaches. You can have breakfast in New York and lunch on the beach. It is very unusual to get, but we have very low-density development, a fantastic legal setup, and quality people. We are 22 miles outside of Manhattan, so Wall Street is a big part of our market. We are also seeing people coming in droves from New York to New Jersey to the suburbs. We are seeing tremendous movement in Westfield because interest rates are historically low, so it is a win-win.

SS: Where do you see the next 12 months specifically for Turks and Caicos?

VB: We have seen an amazing amount of money coming in and a lot of interest in our homes. We presold all the homes, even before acquiring the land. There is a lot of demand there, particularly for the high-end products. I think that will continue, but also, what you see in some of these locations is this new way with investment that is helping us build more amenities. An expansion of the ecosystem around us helps as that you really need people to come into the islands. Our purpose is continuing to grow because people want everything to be as easy as possible. We are putting together all these protocols and trying to make the experience top, top, top notch for our client.

SS: Where do you see your company in the next five to 10 years as you are expanding the brand?

VB: We are very happy with this location. Being on the best beach, we have some amazing homes coming our way. Maybe we will do something else here, but I think our next wave of growth once we have solidified and built our roster, the team is to go and expand abroad. I think what we have done here can be done in pretty much any location where you have wealth coming in, interest in real estate, and interest in a good lifestyle experience.

American actress and lifestyle guru Gwyneth Paltrow has called Brentwood, California home since the 1970s. As a child, she lived with her famed parents, actress Blythe Danner and late director Bruce Paltrow, in their humble Brentwood abode. In 2001, the current owners purchased the property for $1.15 million. Now, for the first time in 20 years, the former Paltrow residence is being listed on the market for a price of $3.2 million.

At the age of 11, Paltrow’s family moved from California to the east coast where spent her teenage years in a Manhattan townhouse that her parents owned from 1984 to 1992. Their former Upper East Side residence was also listed on the market recently at $15.5 million. While Paltrow rose to fame in the films “Shakespeare in Love,” “The Royal Tenenbaums,” and “Emma,” she is primarily known in contemporary society as the founder of controversial lifestyle brand Goop. Paltrow reportedly still resides in the Brentwood area of California where she grew up.

Built in the 1940s, her childhood home spans 2,419 square feet and includes three bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Stepping inside the East Coast traditional, the living room presents a cozy fireplace, wainscotting, and French doors for indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen is equipped with black-and-white checked marble flooring, a wood-top center island, and a Dutch door. Further into the home, the adjacent family room offers a built-in banquette for casual meals and the formal dining room is perfect for entertaining. The main floor also includes a bar and office space. Decorative details consist of wood flooring, a slate-tiled roof, wood windows, bamboo-cloth walls, designer tiles, and custom cabinetry.

Kate Beckinsale

In 2006, Kate Beckinsale purchased a Cape Cod style home in the upscale neighborhood of Brentwood in Los Angeles, California for $3.6 million. Contrary to the typical Hollywood approach to real estate with frequent relocations, the action film star has called Brentwood home for the past 15 years.  However, now that her daughter, 22-year-old Lily Mo Sheen, is reportedly content living in Manhattan, Beckinsale is prepared to bid farewell to her humble California abode. She has recently listed her former Brentwood property for a price of $3.995 million. Considering the competitive state of Los Angeles real estate market, a mere increase from $3.6 million to $3.995 million over the course of 15 years is a generous listing.

Built in 1965, the charming yet elegant Brentwood home spans 3,603 square feet and includes four bedrooms and 5.5 baths. The Cape Cod inspired aesthetic is encapsulated in decorative details of numerous fireplaces, French doors, and wainscoting. Stepping inside, the family room offers comfortable couch seating, a cozy fireplace, and five sets of French doors for fresh air and natural sunlight. The spacious kitchen is equipped with two islands, surrounding marble top counters, and plentiful cabinetry. Further into the home, the office area presents a second lofted level with an exceptional bookcase and ladder for access. Upstairs, the spacious master suite features a fireplace, exposed wooden beams, enormous walk in closet, and luxurious bathroom with his and her sinks, a deep bathtub, and skylit shower. The interior also offers a full bar set up leading outside to the exterior space. The serene, wooded backyard offers lush greenery and space for entertaining with outdoor seating and a stone fireplace. A unique perk of the endearing exterior is a charming footbridge that leads to a spa tub and outdoor shower on a hill above the home.

David Bowie

Commonly referred to as one of the most influential musical figures of the 20^th century, Bowie was widely recognized as a glamorous star with dramatic makeup, remarkable style, and unmatched stage presence. Although the English singer-songwriter unfortunately passed in 2016 due to cancer, his lasting legacy is still apparent in the touches he left behind including his longtime Manhattan apartment.

The New York City property was purchased by Bowie in 1999 for a price of $3.81 million. Located in the Nolita neighborhood, the area offers a charming and chic essence perfectly synonymous with his lively image. Records indicate that this property is currently owned by a trust linked to his estate. Recently though, the superstar’s former residence was placed on the market at an asking price of $16.8 million. Less than a month after its listing, the property has secured a buyer and the home is currently in contract.

Bowie's former longtime residence spans over 5,000 square feet of living space and includes four bedrooms. The stylish apartment sits in a mid-rise Manhattan building that dates back to the late 1800s when the property was utilized as a chocolate factory. The vibrant unit offers direct elevator access and opens to a marvelous 56-foot-long great room. The primary bedroom suite offers more than 1,000 square feet and is equipped with a cozy fireplace and spacious dressing room. Other appealing amenities of the superstar home include a library and three outdoor terraces.

The listing for this property is held by Stuart Moss of the Corcoran Group.

In 2016, Anthony Bourdain first rented the luxe Manhattan apartment for $13,000 per month. The space became home to the travel documentarian for two years until his unfortunate passing in June of 2018. A mere two months later, the celebrity chef’s former residence was placed on the market at a price of $14,200 per month. The space was rented out only a month after its listing. However, three years after Bourdain’s passing, the residence is once more being listed on the rental market. This time the home is being offered at a reduced price of $12,000 per month. Bourdain also owned an Upper East Side apartment with his then wife Ottavia Busia that sold for $3.3 million about a year after his passing. A documentary film revolving around his life titled "Roadrunner" is set to be released on July 16.

Located at the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle, now known as the Deutsche Bank Center, Bourdain’s former apartment spans 1,200 square feet and includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms. As one of the top luxury condominiums in Manhattan, the residence features top of the line amenities and panoramic views of the dazzling cityscape and scenic Hudson River. The interior space offers floor-to-ceiling windows, ultra-modern kitchen appliances, and an expansive closet. The building amenities include a full-time doorman, concierge service, health club, spa, lounge, screening room, landscaped sundeck, and private garage. The apartment is perfectly located in the heart of a bustling Manhattan neighborhood and home to some of the most coveted stores and restaurants on the island.

The luxurious Manhattan abode was once home to John Stewart, comedian and former “Daily Show” host who sold the property in 2014 for $17.5 million to financier Parag Pande and filmmaker Ritu Singh Pande. Seven years later, Shawn Levy and his wife, Serena, purchased the home on April 1 for a price of $13 million via a trust. However, in the short two months following, Levy “has recently committed to filming on the West Coast and Europe for the foreseeable future—and the family will not be able to spend time in New York City after all,” according to the listing team led by Danny Davis at The Corcoran Group. This has led the Levy’s to list their former Manhattan abode on the market for $15 million.

As the largest and last penthouse to sell at 40 Bleecker in New York City’s NoHo neighborhood, this condominium is the highest priced property in the newly constructed building. The penthouse consists of the top two floors of the 1900s commercial building, which was converted into loft-style condominiums in 2004. The ultramodern interiors were designed by Ryan Korban although the Levy’s did undergo some minor renovations during their short stay such as painting over some wallpapers. The lavish space spans 6,280 square feet with five bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms. The home includes two living rooms, a large family room, multiple entertaining areas, office, and two outdoor terraces. According to the listing, “the apartment feels like a house in a doorman condo.”

In November 2019, Bella and her sister, Gigi Hadid, had both purchased real estate properties in Manhattan. Bella purchased a renovated SoHo penthouse for $6.1 million. The six-story building dating back to 1877 was previously a silk showroom and was later converted into a residential co-op in 2016.

Many of the original industrial elements of the building remain such as the brick barrel-vaulted ceilings, dark metal columns, and exposed ductwork.

Hadid’s duplex spans 2,180 square feet with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The private rooftop deck offers an extra 779 square feet of space. Other features include imported Italian built-in closets, a glass-walled and temperature controlled 100-bottle wine room, custom lighting, and motorized blackout shades in the bedrooms.

The central room combines the kitchen, home office, and living and dining rooms. Hardwood flooring, modern light fixtures and built-in shelving are throughout the central room as well.

"As employees working remotely and see little reason to live close to the office, Manhattan apartment landlords are providing the biggest move-in concessions on record in an effort to fill empty units during the pandemic," says Elliot Bogod of Broadway Realty. "Rents tumbled 19% in January as listings continued to pile up. Special incentives and freebies averaged 2-3 months, most in over the last decade, which have helped somewhat. Many schools, colleges, and cultural attractions are also still shuttered. New lease signings jumped, but revenue for landlords is still slipping. With the value of concessions subtracted, the median rent in Manhattan plunged substantially."

Eugenia Foxworth of Foxworth Realty adds, "There are several thousand rental apartments available in Manhattan. Many people do not want to live in high rises since COVID-19. The reason that there has been an upsurge in renting in luxury full-service buildings is due to the lower rental cost. Many people are working remotely, have lost their positions, and are relocating to the suburbs. For example, on Central Park South, one apartment in particular was asking $15,000 per month and now it is renting for $,9999.  The landlords are offering from one to three months free on one to two-year leases. Some buildings are not increasing the rent when leases are expiring. It is advantageous for renters during this pandemic."

Natiivo Miami and the Evolution of the Built Environment in Miami

A special conversation with Keith Menin, Alex Xakoustis, and Raymond Fort, the three industry leaders who have joined forces to bring to life Natiivo Miami, the revolutionary for-sale, homesharing-friendly development located in Downtown Miami. REGISTER.

Highlight quotes from today's webinar:

Kristin Ehrgott: "Typically, the inventory would drive the demand, but now the market is being driven by the demand of the buyers. I just put a house in the market for $2 million and got an offer for almost full price on the same day... We officially announced our joining up with Compass last week, so I've been getting my team on the Compass platform and using the technology. As soon as we announced, we were ready... Due to the amount of demand from our current clients and other Compass agents, I have not reinitiated my Zillow account... I have a client that owned a high-rise condo in Jersey City. They fled to a parent's beach house for a couple of weeks (to spend the quarantine). They contacted me and said they did not want to go back to the condo. They wanted us to sell it. The home they ended up moving to had 11 offers. I found a strategy to persuade the sellers to accept my buyers' offer, and located a buyer for their property in Jersey City... Deals are getting easier to transact. Buyers and sellers are getting together and being reasonable... If you're in an area where inventory is limited and demand is high, people make money on real estate investments."

Margaret Miggins: "It was easier to say vacant homes (during quarantine)...  With the pandemic, many kids came back to their parents' home. It gave people a pause. We are noticing that things are opening back up. There are multiple bid situations going on all over the place... One of our agents just put a listing on and within two minutes, she had six appointments... We are seeing a lot of New Yorkers coming out... It's a robust real estate market now. There's little inventory and everything is getting absorbed quickly... We are seeing multiple bids in every price point. People like to feel settled. We are getting a lot of (requests for) home offices, a patch of grass (from buyers)... When we heard that Compass was opening up in Jersey, we loved it. We love everything about their marketing... Normally, in August we take off the last two weeks. I don't think we will be doing that this year. We lost our Spring market and it's now opening up, so everyone is going to want to get in (their new home) for the school year."

Michael W. Stanco: "We have been operating and it's an exciting time to represent the people in this region... We feel Compass is light years ahead of any other brokers... We are looking forward to servicing sellers and buyers because this area has never been in as much demand as now... It's all about relationships. People come to us because they trust us. Every relationship can go in every direction, so we take every client seriously and treat them equally... Pricing has not gone down these last months. It has been stable or even going up... Demand coming out of Manhattan has been there through the years, but now more than ever. For people coming out of the City, either it's a full-time move, or a second-home buyer coming out of Manhattan that is looking to come during the weekend or the summer... Going forward, there is no downtime. August will likely be busier than ever. I think we will go straight through the Fall... Long Island is a great place to live, and we are seeing a resurgence and renewed interest that will push our business and lives in a positive way."

About today's panelists:

Bill Fandel: Real Trends/America’s Best Real Estate Agents (Top Agents by Volume by State) | 2010 - 2019, Twice-Named Telluride (Colorado) Association of Realtors “Realtor of the Year” & “Presidential Award”.

Robin Kencel: Head of The Robin Kencel Group at Compass, among the top ten agents in Greenwich, CT.

Jack Pearson: Top producing broker in The Hamptons, NY area for over 20 years. Creates and build specialty-stylized homes with interior design partners.

Bento Queiroz: Over $100 million in career sales. Recently sold a unit at The Estates at Acqualina for $6.3 million. Specialized in South Florida market.

Highlight quotes:

Bill Fandel: "We were forced into a virtual world. It has given people a glimpse of working more remotely... We are taking longer periods for rentals, of which there is only a certain amount... People will take longer rentals and commute back and forth to different business hubs... Someone can get a good glimpse of properties remotely. We have seen a rise in web traffic and more inquiries on properties that have larger acreage, more breathing room. It will be interesting to see how much of the web traffic stays intact as the re-opening happens... At Compass, we have shown some leadership about releasing technologies and streamlining things... We will enter another market for a place like ours. A lot of it will be predicated on how easy it is to travel and how people are able to stay in hotels... 

Robin Kencel: "In Greenwich, we are not normally a rental market, but we are nimble and have adapted and responded nicely. We found people that were looking for a month or two for rentals. Then, it changed to 'What do you have for the summer?' Now we are working on people that are taking a whole year of renting. It moves people into considering buying... Compass has a well-vetted group of vendors that give us the ability to do virtual tours that are as close to reality as possible... Our numbers have been off for a couple of years so it's a good time to buy."

Jack Pearson: "Millenials are much more attuned to buying properties sight-unseen... If you can't get in and have a video of the house, you sell it that way. If buyers really want a property, you can make the deal contingent on a walk-through. We have to think out of the box... The rental market (in The Hamptons) got squeezed because half the people that own houses rent them in the summer, and instead they are coming out to stay for the summer. Prices have gone up 30% for rentals... People that were on the fence to buy realized that they want to have a house, not be stuck in an apartment... Our population normally goes up six times in August, and that's what really happened here in March."

Bento Queiroz: "We are trying to accommodate all the demand from people trying to come down... Buying a property as my client did at The Estates at Acqualina, he basically pays his property with tax savings within five years... In Miami, if you navigate through the waters or in-land, people are still sitting on land value and holding on... Miami is evolving and taking shape as a global city. If you bring extraordinary architecture to the city, you can capitalize on it... We are offering an incomparable price per square foot in Miami."

Jim St. Andre: "In the high-end of the market of New York City, buyers are looking at this as an opportunity to buy in a neighborhood or building that they couldn't find access to before... From a business perspective, the strong and the intelligent will survive in the next phase of real estate in the United States... New York is the ultimate sub-market. We will see transactions go up and prices will depend on what sub-market of the City you are (looking into)... New Yorkers are resilient and they want to be here because it's New York."

Highlight quotes from the webinar:

Brian Guiltinan: "The good thing about real estate is that, with technology, we have moved this way for a few years... I think we will see a lot of product (homes) hit the market this summer... You have to know your marketplace. It takes time to build relationships."

Moira E. Holley: "Zoom has now become part of my daily routine. I feel comfortable with my iPhone, iPad and Facetime walking through a property with clients on the other end, or just sending them a video so they can take a look."

Frank D. Isoldi: "Manhattan is an awesome place; Brooklyn is off the charts. But we are seeing a shift towards the suburbs. Now more than ever, people are going to be looking for outdoors, home gyms, home offices... It's crucial to have the right people working on the transaction on both sides." 

Devin Kay: "Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook play a pivotal role to keep in touch with people. I have 10-12 buyers from outside of Florida looking to get into the market. Having a huge presence in social media and marketing is going to make a difference... With rates where they are now, banks are going to be more careful on who they lend to and how they qualify people."

The sale is just the latest in Weinstein’s streak of offloading properties. First was his Upper West Side townhouse, which fetched $15 million; then his Greenwich, Connecticut mansion for $17 million.

Weinstein listed the Manhattan duplex last September for $29.5 million but shed $3 million in January, before further deflating the price for buyer Pamela Schein Murphy, founder of the Select 7 lifestyle website.

The residence encompasses 14 rooms on the 16th and 17th floors of the Beresford building in Upper West Side. The 7,000-square-foot home boasts vistas of Central Park that unfold in five bedrooms, six-and-a-half bathrooms as well as a staff room.

While the listing images of Weinstein’s home show bare interiors, the listing agency, Corcoran, emphasized the home’s innate features such as original herringbone floors, woodburning fireplaces, two terraces and a curved staircase.

Weinstein’s urge to sell comes after The Weinstein Co. declared bankruptcy in March and his brother faces sexual misconduct charges.

Pete told Jimmy Fallon on a recent Tonight Show appearance, "I feel like I won a contest," when asked about being engaged to Ariana. She has already teased a new song, "Pete," about, "this love that I'm in."

The happy couple, who have been pictured lately shopping and holding hands around New York, paid $16 million for a chevron-shaped condo on the High Line.

One of the last finished buildings of the late Pritzker Prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid, the chic condo is all curves. Ariana and Pete can cook together in their highly-curated, top-of-the-line kitchen, or watch Pete's favorite flick, "Good Time," starring Robert Pattinson, in the private IMAX theatre. It is a cinematic marvel for any apartment to have. It reportedly cost a half-million-dollars to construct.

The pair will have plenty of room for wedding gifts too: there's on-site storage inspired by a Swiss bank vault. Plus, in a city where keeping a car can be a challenge, the integrated parking deck is a luxury in itself.

In a class of high-end condos where promoting wellness is an amenity theme, this building includes a juice bar, fitness center, and 75-foot sky-lit pool. There is also a private reservable spa suite that may interest this amorous pair.

Ariana and Pete's unit has five bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths. The master connects to an en-suite walk-in closet with dressing room. The master bath is done in Nero Marquinia marble with a freestanding six-foot sculptural bathtub.

The white oak hardwoods add warmth to the main living area, while the 9-foot retractable wall-to-wall windows provide those artsy high-line views. This boutique building appears to have everything two young trend-setters need.

Cynics may decry the speed of Ariana and Pete's engagement–the camera-ready PDA, her $93,000 ring, or the tribute ink they've gotten for each other at Chinatown’s No Idols Tattoo Shop–but they've both seen darker days and been hurt before. What's different this time? Laughter was the spark of their attraction–according to the word on the street.

Is it crazy to move into a space-age luxury condo with someone you've only dated for two months? Maybe. But as the Spanish poet, Pedro Calderon de la Barca, once said, "When love is not madness, it is not love."

A lot has changed in 200 years. Horse-drawn carriages have been reduced to a tourist novelty around Central Park and The Brewster Carriage House on Broome street is now a fine example of Nuevo vintage design in New York.

The building that stands at the intersection of SOHO, the lower East side, and Nolita has so much charm that power couple John Legend and Chrissy Teigen have bought into it for the second time.

Their first one-bedroom apartment was sold in 2016 for $3.9 million, but they must have missed the orange bricks and white oak floors because in May of this year they purchased one of the penthouses.

The condo only has 9 units and now John Legend and Chrissy Teigen have lived in two of them.

Brewster Carriage House is a great reconstruction story. From being a factory to almost being demolished, to being restored with museum-like precision by artist and developer Ross Morgan, the building represents New York's Lower Manhattan luxury boom.

John Legend and Chrissy Teigen's 2,610 square feet of penthouse perch is a 3-3 with glorious 13-foot ceilings. Massive windows break up the exposed brick, and wood accented walls invite elevated views of Broome and Mott Streets.

Chrissy can watch re-runs of her show Lip Sync Battle on the retractable 133-inch projection screen. While John's Grammy-winning songs can accompany the passing clouds when played through the outdoor sound system installed on the private landscaped roof terrace.

The entire building is also green-energy efficient and wired for smart home technology. Adjusting the thermostat, raising the shades, and a host of other conveniences can be accessed via an app on the phone.

The fixtures in the apartment seek to honor the building's history while also providing a richly detailed quality. There's a copper-railed staircase framing a glass-fronted wine closet. The kitchen includes a natural quartz island surrounded by bespoke iron-faced cabinets.

A series of Juliet balconies off the living and dining areas encourage the opening of French doors to let a cocktail breathe. Industrial-yet-refined is the vibe here. Wood grains mingle with custom ironwork and exposed brick modernly offset by white walls in a setting fit for an R&B crooner and his media-savvy wife.

If John, Chrissy or their kids get hungry they won't have to go far. The block that The Brewster Carriage House anchors is encircled by high-rated and eclectic dining options. There's authentic Greek yogurt, old-world Italian, a Ramen noodle house, and Indian food only a few feet away.

Chrissy and John are based out of LA, where they purchased Rihanna's former mansion in 2016. When they do stay on the East Coast, this penthouse provides a desirable balance of style, comfort, and class. No wonder they came back to Broome Street.

Korban has designed flagship luxury apparel stores (Balenciaga, Alexander Wang, Aquazzura, Fivestory) and private homes for a bevy of fashion designers, models, actors and other prominent cultural figures. 40 Bleecker is his first foray into residential development.

“I knew my work needed to speak to a new generation of downtown buyers who are looking for luxury and elegance against a modern backdrop,” said Korban of his design for the Noho condominium. “This idea of ‘contrast’ is evident throughout the spaces in everything from textures and materials, to finishes and furniture. Masculine contrasts with feminine, traditional with modern, soft with brutalist.”

The lobby is outfitted with marble and dove gray terrazzo flooring, offset by suede-paneled and Beauval limestone walls. The seating area features two Korban-designed sofas flanking a French limestone slab coffee table centered around a black marble fireplace.

The building has 61 apartments ranging in price from $1.75 million for a one-bedroom to $6.31 million for a five-bedroom. Typical apartments have high ceilings and large windows. Kitchens feature Miele appliances and cerused oak cabinetry. Atop the 12-story building are six penthouses, each with its own private outdoor space. Two of the penthouses recently sold for $10.185 and $6.6 million, respectively.

Common areas include a 57-foot swimming pool, an exercise and stretching room and a bicycle room. There is also a 5,600-square-foot courtyard with reflecting pools, Zen waterfalls and Chevron paths, brought to life by Hollander Design. Beneath the building is a private parking. A concierge and live-in superintendent are there to cater to residents’ needs.

40 Bleecker is designed by Rawlings Architects, and features a brick-and-metal exterior and punched-glass window openings. The industrial look is supposed to be a nod to Noho’s history.

“40 Bleecker honors the traditions of its surroundings while offering a truly exceptional lifestyle rarely seen in new development in New York City” said Raymond Chalme, CEO of Broad Street Development, the building’s developer. “The roster of design talent that has been assembled to create 40 Bleecker is likely never to be recreated, and it makes these homes truly a once-in-a-generation opportunity.”

Construction on the building is currently underway and is expected to be completed within the year.

"40 Bleecker is a new way of living and sets the tone for the future of design and development downtown,” said Korban.

Correction: An earlier version of this story misidentified the CEO of Broad Street Development. His name is Raymond Chalme, not Richard.

252 East 57th Street, designed by Roger Duffy of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), only opened its doors six months ago but has already reached 80% capacity.

“We’re building a very strong community of people,” says the building’s director of sales, Pamela D’Arc. “This is not one of those dark buildings, people really want to live here.”

And why wouldn’t they? While the building might stand a relatively short (by billionaire’s row standards) 712 feet, it does not short you on amenities. Residents of the 95 condos are welcome to enter through a 14-foot wide, 30-foot tall gated couchere on 56th Street, which is perfect for parking a singular vehicle or an entire motorcade.

Condos start on the 36th floor of the 65-story tower. Residents can choose from 20 different floor plans, hand-selected by architect Daniel Romualdez, who has reportedly designed interiors for the likes of Mick Jagger and other prominent celebrities.

The unique attraction of the condos are curving windows that offer different exposures in each unit. The designers call it the “S” curve.

“If the apartment faces south and west you can still get a northern exposure,” D’Arc explains. “It offers an architectural uniqueness that really sets this building apart.

Duffy’s inspiration for the S-curve came from famed Finnish architect Alvar Aalto. The tower was designed to resemble the gentle curves of the widely reproduced vase Aalto made in 1937 for a restaurant in Helsinki. The building pays homage to Aalto by dubbing its 169 rental units in the lower portion of the tower Aalto57.

Separating those rental units from the condos are three amenity floors featuring a private lounge, library, dining room, catering kitchen, billiards room, theater, fitness center, spa, a 75-foot swimming pool and a 70-foot terrace. There are also two visitor guest suites and a dog playground and grooming station. Beneath the building, 252 East 57th boasts the largest automated parking garage in New York, which is reserved exclusively for owners.

D’Arc says residents have been making the most of the amenity spaces, routinely hosting dinner parties and events. The building concierge tends to all needs, from booking a masseuse for the sauna to ordering dinner to the apartment.

Of course, residents won’t have to travel far for dinner as there is a Whole Foods next door. D’Arc says the grocery has helped give this portion of Midtown adjacent to the lavish Sutton Place a more “neighborhood” feel.

“We think there is a great opportunity on this end of 57th,” D’Arc says. “It is not as crowded as the rest of Midtown but you are still blocks away from tons of great shops and restaurants.”

In terms of pricing, condos are reportedly selling in the $10-$15 million range. Shoe mogul, Steve Madden shelled out $12.2 million for a unit last September. In October, 252 East 57th unveiled its priciest unit: a 8,139 square-foot penthouse on the top floor.

The unit features six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, two private balconies and views of both the George Washington and Verrazano bridges. With a price tag of $37.5 million it’s being marketed as a bargain.

With its combination of price and design, 252 East 57th feels like an admirable addition to billionaire’s row.

The interior design palate of neutral grays and creams has been beautifully executed and is effortlessly classic. From the breathtaking entrance foyer finished in Chambord Limestone and polished plaster, to the 5" wide white-oak planked floors throughout, the townhouse exudes sophistication.

The massive chefs kitchen has Olympian White Danby Fleuri Stone countertops, and Olympian White Danby vein cut marble island and low luster white lacquer cabinetry. The kitchen has been outfitted with all top of the line appliances, such as Wolf range and oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, freezer, and wine-cooler, Miele dishwasher, and Dornbrocht faucets.

The townhouse features approximately 10,088 sq ft over four floors with both a private and public passenger elevator servicing each floor. The parlor floor features over 12' ceilings with beautiful south facing floor to ceiling arched windows and there is a large private terrace off the first floor.

There is no other townhouse/condominium in the city that can compare!

The post Classic, Intimate and Sophisticated Townhouse in Manhattan appeared first on Haute Residence by Haute Living.

Reportedly, media mogul Barry Diller and his fashion designer girlfriend Diane von Furstenberg have pledged $113 million of their own personal fortune toward constructing Heatherwick’s fantastical proposal for Manhattan—a floating island oasis park over the Hudson River between Pier 55 off West 13th Street and the decaying Pier 54.

Treasure Island is an imaginative 108,000-square-foot public park proposed for Manhattan's west side.

The oasis park's undulating topography will be unlike any other park in New York City.

The island will stand over the Hudson River, 184 feet off Manhattan's shoreline at West 13th Street.

Diller and von Furstenberg's donation is the largest ever for a public park in New York City’s history. If all goes according to plan, New York State and New York City's biggest advocates (Governor Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio) will be onboard for the public park venture. It's amazing how a $113 million donation can bring public, private, and government in line. No bureaucracy or red tape this time.

The park’s design is complete, and is projected to cost $130 million overall. City and state funding will fill the estimated $17- to $18-million gap, as well as further plans to enhance and widen the West 14th Street esplanade area 50 more feet over the water, near Treasure Island’s proposed location. Hudson River Park boasts 13 newly-built piers of which Treasure Island will be the latest, when approval by the Hudson River Park Trust is finalized in early 2015. Perhaps Chelsea Piers (with its golf driving range pier) and even the Chelsea neighborhood's elevated High Line section showed New York City what was possible when space is at a premium.

Treasure Island is a collaboration between British designer Thomas Heatherwick and landscape architect Mathews Nielsen. New Yorkers can expect lush landscapes like this.

The 2.7-acre oasis will showcase 108,000 square feet of undulating topography (rising from 15 feet to 71 feet above the water) upon 341 mushroom-like concrete pile foundations. The park will boast lushly-landscaped gardens, groves, open grass, and idyllic spots for lounging. Most spectacularly, the island will offer unexpected spaces seemingly reserved for Alice in Wonderland and a 700-seat amphitheater for music, dance, theater and public art performances.

Treasure Island will play host to free or low-cost entertainment programmed by some of Hollywood’s top talent, including Academy Award-winning (The Social Network) and Tony-Award-winning (The Book of Mormon) producer Scott Rudin, vice chair of the nonprofit Pier55 Inc., which will fund day-to-day operations under a 20-year lease with the park trust, according to reports.

Like Central Park, the 2.7 acre oasis will offer New Yorkers an escape from stressful city life--all on the Hudson River.

Designer Heatherwick is collaborating with landscape architect Mathews Nielsen to create Treasure Island which will flourish 184 feet offshore and connect (via two pedestrian bridge ramps) to Hudson River Park--a four-mile-long stretch that extends from Battery Park City to 59th Street. Nielsen also designed the Tribeca section of the Hudson River. According to the New York Post, the island park will replace much of Pier 54, where the steamship Carpathia safely returned survivors of the sunken Titanic in 1912.

Heatherwick, head of Heatherwick Studio, is also developing a Garden Bridge that spans London’s River Thames between the South Bank and Covent Garden. Since bridges over the Hudson are a no-no, the Treasure Island “Manhattan project” will grant the public park access only from the West 13th Street side (sorry New Jersey, you’ll be allowed to visit it via Manhattan).

The 700-seat amphitheater will present music, art, dance, and theatrical shows programmed by top showbiz talent.

Treasure Island at night above the Hudson River.

The park, located between Pier 55 and a dilapidated area of Pier 54, will beautify Manhattan's shoreline in one of the most unique interpretations in the city's history.

"When I was little I used to come to Manhattan to visit my great aunt who lived here and never forgot being driven down the West Side Highway and seeing the fields of disused pile heads sticking out of the river," said Heatherwick, quoted in de Zeen Magazine. "All these years later, my studio and I are [honored] to now be growing another set of river piles in the midst of these historic ones to hold up a new phenomenal public park with special spaces for performances," he said.

Heatherwick is famous for his enormous imagination and creativity. He designed the Olympic cauldron for the opening and closing ceremonies at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London. His cauldron, the stadium centerpiece, featured 204 individual copper sculpture stems topped by flame which converged from the ground (surging skyward like a radiating flower petal) to form the giant kinetic cauldron that represented the Olympic spirit of unity. Heatherwick's imagination knows no bounds, routinely pulling off what others would think is impossible—if they could imagine that far. Treasure Island is the latest example of this.

Treasure Island will be similar to designer Heatherwick's Garden Bridge in London, which will span the River Thames.

Thomas Heatherwick, designer of the proposed Treasure Island

Even the “The Bard" (William Shakespeare) himself couldn’t have imagined performances of King Lear over the Hudson River (or the River Thames)—despite repeated references to nature's "shadowy forests," "plenteous rivers," and "wide-skirted meads" (meadows). Shakespeare could have been describing Manhattan's Treasure Island.

The only remaining question: how safe will this island be considering past damage to Manhattan's shoreline following big storms like Hurricane Sandy? We’re sure Barry, Diane, Thomas and Mathews (who have so much invested in Treasure Island's future success), as well as New York City and New York State, will ensure the oasis is more than structurally sound for New York City residents, tourists and Shakespearean actors alike. But just in case, we hope Othello, Lady McBeth, Falstaff and Shylock are good swimmers. The only Shakespearean tragedies we expect to unfold on Treasure Island will be on stage at the amphitheater.

Treasure Island will be a destination for New Yorkers and tourists seeking solace, nature and elite entertainment.

Developers Okada Acquisitions, JVL Property Group and Zion Enterprises finalized converting the defunct St. Vincent’s Midtown Hospital into 55 modern units in the heart of Midtown Manhattan—a stone’s throw from Broadway, Central Park, Restaurant Row, Time Warner Center and Lincoln Center.

According to The Real Deal, the Chetrit Group partnered with Tessler Development to buy the property (and a surrounding property and vacant lot) in 2007 for $84.73 million before initiating the conversion from hospital to condo. Chetrit then sold part of the property at 432 West 52nd Street for $41.4 million in June.

Hell’s Kitchen is among the Manhattan communities craving residential space. In recent decades, the neighborhood has undergone a complete makeover and a public relations effort to soften its image with aliases like Clinton or Midtown West. The neighborhood that gave us actor-writer Sylvester Stallone, musician Alicia Keys and The Actor’s Studio is now known as a haven for aspiring actors and entertainers. Bob Hope, James Dean, Larry David, Jerry Seinfeld and Madonna all resided in Hell’s Kitchen.

Hell’s Kitchen residents remain strong and resilient. When Frank Sinatra sang, “If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere,” he must have meant Hell’s Kitchen. Keys, raised by a single mother, sang (in Empire State of Mind, Part II) about making it "by any means" and her "pocketful of dreams” from Hell’s Kitchen. Stallone wrote the screenplay for the film Rocky in Hell’s Kitchen—and initially turned down $350,000 for the rights to the script, despite having only $106 in the bank. There was Hell to pay, but they all made it.

Today, Hell’s Kitchen is even hotter. And residents of 432 W. 52nd will likely be the next generation to make it there—if they haven’t already.

Queen Sophia Spanish Institute's neo-Federal style architecture.

The Queen Sofia Spanish Institute has called the six-story townhouse at 684 Park Avenue its home since 1965, after philanthropist Mary Rockefeller Strong purchased the property (as well as several neighboring homes) and subsequently donated it to the organization. The institute was founded in 1954 to promote the Spanish language and Spain’s culture (designer Oscar de la Renta is currently its chairman). Originally called the Oliver D. Filley House, the building was erected as a private mansion in 1926 by prominent architectural firm McKim, Mead & White, according to The New York Times.

Interiors feature ornate plaster moldings, oversized windows, lavish mirrors and chandeliers.

The 11,000-square-foot mansion showcases a neo-Federal style brick and wrought-iron-fenced exterior reminiscent of a Washington, D.C. embassy—down to its flying American and Spanish flags. The impressive interior features ornate plaster moldings, oversized windows, lavish mirrors, elegant winding staircases, marble fireplaces with carved mantles, and lofty vaulted ceilings decorated by tiered chandeliers. It also boasts a huge grand parlor, a distinguished library, and a courtyard terrace.

Rockefeller Strong acquired the townhouses on this block to prevent them from being replaced by apartments, and thus, “saved the block from modernization,” according to The New York Times. Designated a landmark in 1970, the building appears safe from developers who have scooped up other nonprofit headquarters recently to convert to luxury residential space.

The mansion boasts a 26' x 29' courtyard terrace.

Nonprofits struggle to afford New York City’s expensive overhead so they often cash in by “selling out” for big bucks (if they own their headquarters). Recent examples include the United Cerebral Palsy, which plucked $135 million for its East 23rd headquarters, and St. John’s University, which sold a Tribeca dorm for $233 million. Now, the Queen Sofia Spanish Institute is the latest nonprofit headquarters in Manhattan to go on the block. Apparently, the “nonprofit” distinction ends at the doorstep with a wink, a nod, and an extremely generous offer.

The classic library boasting chandeliers, large windows and, of course, books.

The secondary bedrooms' en suite baths each have a private dressing room, along with Portuguese Azul Lagos limestone floors; porcelain ceramic tile walls; a custom lacquered vanity; and a Catalano ceramic sink. All the baths showcase Zuma soaking tubs and Vola polished chrome fixtures.

The contemoprary structure's three opulent penthouses also each feature a wood-burning fireplace, 11- or 12-foot ceilings, and three bedrooms complete with en suite baths, not to mention wraparound private terraces that envelope a dramatic mix of sky, greenery, and sculpted concrete.

The posh edifice, which has a gallery-like lobby dressed with cypress wood and natural cleft slate, will feature a doorman and a state-of-the-art intercom, as well as a video security system. The building will also have a fully equipped fitness hub, a full-time superintendent, and laundry room with commercial-grade washers and dryers, and large private storage spaces for each residence, along with a shared courtyard appointed with a gas grill.
