FORSYTH via CityRealty
The penthouse at FORSYTH (204 Forsyth Street) has recently closed with an asking price of $8.5 million and set a new record for two-bedroom condos on the Lower East Side. The record was previously held by #28W in Ian Schrager’s 215 Chrystie Street, which sold for $7,280,488 in December 2017.
TOWN handled the deal for this two-bedroom, two-bath condo with a private, 1,844sf roof terrace as well as two smaller terraces off the living area and bedrooms. Timeless interiors designed by Paris Forino are accented by 12-foot ceilings and custom-crafted, floor-to-ceiling windows with metal frames. The clean, modern, open kitchen has Calacatta marble countertops and backsplash, hand-crafted cabinetry, and state-of-the-art appliances. The spa-like marble master bath features a Waterworks sink, glass-enclosed shower, and Kohler soaking tub.

The Chrystie Street apartment seems eager to top itself and possibly reclaim its old record; as the building’s first resale, it is back on the market and listed for $7.995 million. The next most expensive two-bedroom in the neighborhood is located at 196 Orchard Street, listed for $4.15 million, and features a private terrace with a gas grill.
