I have a friend who lives in that building (not in the clock-tower apartment obviously)! I always wondered what they were going to do with that--it seemed like only one of Batman's arch-enemies would want (or could afford) it.

Whenever I see a really cool apartment in New York that I know I would never be able to afford, I like to think about I Am Legend, and imagine everyone in NY is dead and I can live wherever I want and shoot zombies from my sportscar.

That would be frikkin' sweet!

A stunning triplex penthouse apartment that overlooks the Brooklyn Bridge and New York Harbour has just been listed for $25 million USD, making it the most expensive property in Brooklyn (if it sells mind you).

Wouldn't the whole building cost more than the single condo, if you were for sale? Though it seems the whole thing has been parceled into individual pieces, but the title "most expensive property" seems misleading.

That's a stunningly beautiful apartment.

Small quibble, though: the press is giving too much weight to the seller's declaration of value.

He's declared that the apartment will be worth $25 million. I suspect that the market won't be quite so cooperative. And it's the market that ultimately determines how much that apartment will be worth.

Many are the times I've passed the ride home on the D train gazing out the window and into that clocktower apartment, wondering who lived there and what it looked like on the inside.

Yes, the clock is backwards from the inside, but despite bracing myself for something tacky, it's gorgeous.

That was my first thought, too. Then I wondered if people would complain about having really hideous curtains behind the clock faces. Or that the lights are turned off at night, rendering the clocks unreadable from outside.

Other than that, it does look like a nice place. And why doesn't my house have a crow's nest? Something about vertical space just feels more fun than the same space laid out horizontally.

For $25 million, time better run in the opposite direction inside the apartment, making the clock strangely correct.

Interesting quote: "He negotiated a deal with the condominium board a few years ago to incorporate the tower space into the 16th-floor apartment." So it used to just be the top floor, and the tower bit was added on.

What CitrusFreak12 said -- I was so prepared to snark/snipe, but I'm just drooling.

And to top it off, if I owned it, I'd get to say that the building used to be a "cardboard box factory" -- the idea of which, I, for some reason, find infinitely amusing.

Unsurprisingly, the apartment was commissioned by David Walentas, the creator of the Dumbo neighborhood (I hate this name!).

Fun fact: the name "Dumbo" was coined in 1978 by a community group of the artists who lived in live/work spaces in the area (ie, the people who actually "created" the neighborhood; ie, the people who can no longer afford to live there)--it was a purposely stupid name designed as a fuck you to the developers who were already moving in and taking over, and would eventually get the credit for "transforming" the neighborhood from an "industrial wasteland."

There are already tons of brain eating zombies in New York. They're called Real Estate Agents, and they're the highest most deluded, most manipulative, duplicitous, psychopathic, scum bags in the world.

I'd buy that apartment only if I could have a real estate agent crucified on each of it's clocks and twisted into gnarly shapes. And for the right price, I'm sure there's a few who'd let you hire them to do that, which leads me to my next very salient and completely thoughtful and serious point:

Okay, who looked at those photos and didn't think it would make a either a great HQ for the Joker or some new Batman villain? Or maybe a completely new Gotham superhero?

There is something simultaneously cool and downright disgusting about this place. Like most of you I think it looks quite nice, it really seems like a very neat place, aesthetically I like it quite a bit.

On the other hand, there is no little irony that a cardboard factory, where blue collar workers toiled away for (imaginably) minimum wage, or less back in the day, for years and years is now home to such incredible excess. Asking 25 million does seem like a publicity stunt, but even at 8 million (the asking price for the next priciest listing) it's fucking ridiculous. It's shit like that which should be taxed at 50%+ with funds going towards the general welfare in some manner.

(funny how stuff like this brings out the socialist (small s) in me, while all the rantings and railings by like-minded commenters across the internet do little to provoke suck feelings, and often have the opposite effect)

And it would also be pretty cool to have a trampoline in the big room on the first floor a la "Big."

I had an idea about this the other day. Note I'm not from New York so this might be a very bad idea but there are abandoned tunnels that subways don't use anymore right? Why not do a little clean up, remodel a little and turn those tunnels into low cost housing. Pests shouldn't be a problem because what cheap apartment in NY doesn't have them already? Since land is so expensive as is why not use what you got.

Not if King Bloomy can help it. I think he plans on being Mayor for life. Who's to stop him, now that we so clearly live in an oligarchy. And Bloomberg is very good to his real estate friends. They get all sorts of city money. Taxpayer money. Money paid as taxes by mostly lower-middle class people and poor people paying taxes to be priced out of their neighborhoods.

But, hopefully we have the last laugh, rents and prices are falling and maybe affordable housing will come anyway through the sheer availability of empty new units, in ugly new buildings. They have to rent them out at some point.
posted by Skygazer at 4:23 PM on January 7, 2010


BTW, my guess on the two hovering showerheads is that they are indeed over a subtly-tilted floor, and the sink hides the view of the drain. Two friends in Pittsburgh built a castle; their master bath is about 7x7', and works like this, with no threshold barrier to retain the water (it doesn't travel that far).

Nota bene: not the single showerhead here, which clearly is over a bathtub.

I always love when there's a topic on Metafilter that I know intimately. As it happens, I run a giant clock tower, albeit a bit south of this one.

When I took over as the facility manager for Baltimore's Bromo Seltzer Arts Tower, my first big fantasy was that I'd haul a desk up to the machine room and make my super-villain lair up there. I mean, hell, it's an amazing room, a real chapel of 1911 technical know-how, but the things that make it amazing are dirty, dangerous, and contrary to comfy living. There's the 18 story deep elevator shafts in the floor, the original 1910 Otis elevator gear that sounds like it was built by James Whale's art director and would impassively murder you if you were a bit close when the pulleys start whirling, and the 1910 Seth Thomas four-face clock mechanism ($3500 in 1910--I have the sales receipt), which is a model of bronze-geared simplicity. To make it a living space, or even a non-freezing, non-baking, non-humming, non-occasionally-chasing-a-pigeon-out-with-a-broom office, you'd have to destroy the essence of the place, which is exactly what the place in Brooklyn suffered.

I mean, it's nifty, in a way, but it's indistinguishable from something you could scratch-build in a stuccoed California shopping center. I look at it and wonder if they even saved the poor master clock in before replacing the old rig, driveshafts, and face motion works with what looks like some generic individual motor drives. I'd hope they would have donated that gear, but that kind of construction rarely coincides with reverence for great old stuff.

So, yeah, it's neat, but it could have been neater.

P.S. Yes, I know the South face of Bromo isn't running right now. I'm working on it. Also, we can't put the giant Bromo Seltzer bottle back on top, for structural reasons. You can, however, rent an art studio space in the Tower, which is pretty cool, if not quite so dramatic as the place in Brooklyn (forgive the plug, if you can).

I didn't know you were from Baltimore Marisa. My best friends in college were all from near there and I spent many a weekend in that wonderful town. Eating mussels, going to crab shacks on the Bush River. One of them even bought a rowhouse on Castle Street after he graduated when the city was basically giving them away so people would develop them.

And though I have never really been a bar person, those dive bars down near the inner harbor are the coolest places in the world.
