Harold Ford's New York City Apartment For Sale

Filed under: Estates

Harold Ford Jr. has been in the news a lot lately over his potential New York U.S. Senate campaign and Gawker has drawn our attention to his New York City apartment which is on the market. Ford served as a member of the United States House of Representatives from Tennessee's 9th congressional district from 1997 to 2007. He ran for a Tennessee Senate seat in 2006 and lost.

He married Emily Threlkeld and moved to New York City in 2008 where the pair took up residence in her colorful Fifth Avenue two-bedroom apartment. She bought the apartment in 2006 at which time it was listed at $1.597 million. An old listing from Corcoran reveals a very different look for this apartment. The bright yellow and vivid turquoise color scheme seems to be a recent addition. The apartment has a open floor plan but has a proper foyer that leads into a living area which is over 30 feet long and has separated dining and living room areas. The master bedroom includes a walk-through dressing room and custom bath. Listing information from Brown Harris Stevens reveals that the apartment recently had a $90,000 price cut and it is now for sale at $1.4 million.
