Actor extraordinaire Meryl Streep has been trying to get rid of her luxurious and spacious Tribeca penthouse for almost a year and a half, since listing it back in August of 2018. After making several price adjustments, she has finally found a buyer for this stunning residence, as reported by The Wall Street Journal. This enduring journey highlights the challenges and intricacies involved in the high-end real estate market, especially for properties owned by celebrities.
The four-bedroom penthouse is situated at the top of River Lofts in Tribeca, an exclusive neighborhood where other famous personalities, including Gwyneth Paltrow, have resided. The building is known for its emphasis on privacy, featuring amenities like an underground parking garage with direct elevator access to the apartments. Such features make it a desirable location for those seeking luxury and discretion in New York City.
Described in its marketing materials as the work of National Design Award-winning Tsao & McKown architects, the penthouse boasts a recently renovated fitness center, a 24-hour doorman, a bicycle room, and a garden. It also includes a private vestibule accessible via a keyed elevator, overlooking the bustling Hudson River Park and the vibrant shops and restaurants of Tribeca and SoHo. Despite multiple price cuts, Streep is still making a significant profit compared to the original purchase price of $10.131 million she and her husband, artist and sculptor Don Gummer, paid for it back in 2006.
