With our apologies for the late pick-up. The New York Observer, relentless chronicler of all things real estated related–especially Upper East Side of New York townhouses–has the details on Richard Prince’s recent $11.5m townhouse purchase:
Smart contemporary artists like smart old Upper East Side mansions: According to its listing, Mr. Prince’s new place at 57 East 78th Street was built in 1869, and has a marble kitchen; six bedrooms (or five, depending on the layout); a landscaped garden with trees; wine storage in the finished basement; and an 11-foot-tall living/dining room with “a large window of beveled glass, a fireplace and French doors leading to a terrace.” (There’s also a humidification system and a back-up generator, for some reason.)
