Not sure what they’re planning here yet, but if it doesn’t include condos, they’re throwing money away.

A five-story penthouse unit at the Aman New York has closed for $135 million, making it the most expensive sale in New York this year, edging out the $115 million duplex at Central Park Tower, which closed last month.
The 12,500-square-foot unit is one of 22 rarified residences above the Aman New York hotel in the historic Crown Building in Manhattan, located along Billionaire’s Row at Fifth Avenue and West 57th Street. Five units in the building have sold for above $50 million, and one sold for $75.8 million in 2022.

In 2018, when sales launched at the Beaux-Arts landmark, the unit, then called the Crown Penthouse, went into contract for $180 million, which at the time, would have been New York’s most expensive sale ever. But the deal never closed.
The pricing on the previous offer was “for a fully built-out unit,” which accounts for the difference in price, an OKO spokesperson said.
“The $135 million sale of the Penthouse at Aman New York underscores the desirability and appeal of Aman and the iconic Crown Building,” the spokesperson added. “We continue to entertain significant demand for Aman New York’s residences, even as the building’s units are fully committed.”
