Close to the end
More than a few of our astute readers noticed last week that the Esquire apartment at 111 Central Park North, which we reported was about to close at a Harlem-record $8.5 million, was actually still on the market with Halstead Property broker Jill Sloane - and listed for $12 million.
The simple explanation is that it "has a contract that allows it to be marketed by the buyers before it closes," said developer Harry Dubin. He says that a "Fifth Avenue couple" are exercising their right to sell the multi- terraced four-bedroom, four-bath triplex at $12 million or rent it out, which they are attempting to do at $30,000 a month.
Any way you slice it, a record will break, one way or another!
