the world's most expensive properties, One Hyde Park at $170 million for an apartment (before the dflation of the £ some were sold for $200 million), complete with bullet and bomb proofing, tunnels to Harvey Nichols (one of the worlds most exclusive dept stores), and personal 24 hr concierge service from them too. They're designed by Pritzker Prize winner Richard Rogers with state of the art technology and materials, and have panoramic views over a royal park. Basically their location means the uber rich can shop in Harrods for groceries and anything else they want (Harrods will deliver anything you wish from zoo animals to aircraft), and Harvey Niks for the designer gear. The park becomes their garden and fences off their little village from the rest of the urban mass, they now need never leave their vicinity, nor ever see the other side of the city.
