$49MM New York Penthouse Mansion

Wow – This $49MM New York Penthouse Mansion in Tribeca has over 30,000 square feet of livable space, including its own basketball court. The library feels the most ‘New York’ to me but it’s all fabulous. I’d love to see a shot of the exterior. http://theultralinx.com/2012/05/exquisite-495-million-york-penthouse.html
