Tribeca Penthouse, Estate of the Day
Edward Bazinet, a retired businessman, has listed his beautiful Tribeca apartment. While Bazinet made his fortune in selling tchotkes his apartment is a beautiful showcase of modern design. The 19-room unit has just two bedrooms but is spread out over five floors. What would be more bedrooms has been converted into a "work zone" with a reception gallery, office, studio space, study and storage room. The home also has three terraces plus a private roof garden. The master suite takes up a full floor and has a fireplace, bathrooms, skylit walk-in closet, a separate Jacuzzi room and a terrace. The kitchen has an adjacent breakfast room with a fireplace. Other features include 1,000-bottle wine storage, rooftop home gym, a stainless steel/glass staircase and private elevator connecting the floors. One of the most interesting floors is the media room which has a library and a large reading room. This apartment is listed at $28 million by Stephen McRae of Sotheby's Homes.

Wow! Breathtaking apartment!! I love the 2-story dining space, the large windows, the modern/art deco decor, and I love the outdoor space.

Absolutely stunningly executed city pad. Marvellous art that suits. Maybe a titch gay in the bathroom for me but I could live with it. Not sure where I'd put my kids but hey - give me the penthouse for free and I'll find maids quarters for the darn kids.
Even with all the money in the world, I don't think I'd give this place up, especially after all the work that went into it. Buy more houses? Sure. But I wouldn't sell this apartment.

Wow sucks for whoever buys the place and doesnt know about the new building going up.

The city is cramped enough so for this much money I want some space in the form of rooms with some lateral room. The rooms all look too small for me. Overpriced if you ask me.
