Wexner Asks $60 M. at Godly 834 Fifth
By January 1996, the billionaire Les Wexner hadn't spent two months in his 21,000-square-foot stone mansion on East 71st Street, even though he had bought the place seven years earlier, his protégé Jeffrey Epstein told The Times. Never mind that it had been outfitted with a hidden lead-lined bathroom (with a closed-circuit TV) and a heated sidewalk to keep the mansion snow-free. Mr. Epstein, who has since become a billionaire as well, eventually moved into that mansion-because, of course, real estate is a terrible thing to waste.
This week Mr. Wexner is doing something else with his family's rarely used duplex at 834 Fifth Avenue, easily one of the three most lusted after apartment houses in New York City. According to two sources, the co-op is now very discreetly available through Sotheby's broker Serena Boardman and Key-Ventures' A. Larry Kaiser IV. The price is $60 million.
In October, the widowed philanthropist Courtney Sale Ross' apartment at the similarly palatial 740 Park went on the market for "over $60 million," according to The Observer. Both listings are being handled with a very proper kind of quietness: no open houses; no ads; no public photos; and no publicly available listings to ogle.
