The {Real Estate} Life 212 Fifth Avenue

212 Fifth Avenue : NoMad penthouse with two kitchens and a pool asks a neighborhood record-setting $68.5M212 Fifth AvenueAs 6sqft previously reported, sales prices in NoMad rose 43 percent over the past five years, a fact that the developers of 212 Fifth Avenue very likely had in mind when they put a $68.5 million price tag on their building’s penthouse. If the sprawling apartment sells for anywhere near its asking price, it will set a record as the most expensive sale in NoMad. This newly-minted trophy triplex atop 212 Fifth Avenue is the crown (as the listing calls it) that occupies the 22nd, 23rd, 24th floors of a recently converted 1912 condominium building. There are five bedrooms and 5,730 exterior square feet including (at least one) pool.
