Carlyle Penthouse, Estate of the Day

This penthouse at the Carlyle Hotel in New York City has both a view and history. The duplex penthouse once played host to John F. Kennedy and has been renovated by Sharyn Bey Turchin. The appointments are lavish with onyx and marble baths and a beautiful glass chandelier but the apartment is not exactly large, it has just two bedrooms. Of course if you need a sense of spaciousness there is a lovely solarium and open terrace with city views on the second floor, which also has the apartment's bedrooms. The main floor has a tiny kitchen and a unique semicircular dining area as well as a great room and a living room. This lovely jewel box is listed at $14.9 million. After the jump, is that a computer in the bathroom?

Wow, close to $10,000 per square foot!!! Only in NYC. Of course the views are worth 9/10th's of that alone.
By the way, is really necessary to have floor to ceiling mirrors BEHIND the toilet to watch yourself pee???

Looks like a TV, not a PC. Appears to be sitting atop a digital cable box.
Those views are astonishing. Looks photoshopped. Incredible.

I think the "PC" in the bathroom is a whole house control for lights, etc. You can see the reflection in the mirror. The full length mirrors could be amusing late at night and drunk.
Can i just buy the solarium?
