WHICH NY APARTMENT DO YOU THINK IS MORE EXPENSIVE?

Penthouse Apartment in Tribeca

Apartment #1 (above and below): A “light filled” penthouse apartment in Tribeca with 6 bedrooms, 4.5 baths in 6,800 square feet of living space and a 3,000 square foot outdoor garden space.  This NY apartment is listed by Corcoran.

Upper East Side Apartment

Apartment #2 (below): This NY apartment is listed by Sotheby’s and located on the tony upper east side, this 5th Avenue apartment has 3 bedrooms, 4.5 baths with there being 11 rooms total

Both of these New York City apartments are multimillion dollar listings. The price range – anywhere from between $15 million dollars and $20 million. Hmmm…out of my budget definitely!

So a few questions for you…which one do you think is more expensive? And, which one would you take if offered to you (for free)?

Please do weigh in?  Which apartment is priced higher?

P.S.  I recognize there are larger issues in the world to solve.  Figuring out which multimillion dollar apartment is most expensive is not the most thought provoking question to ask…but I figured it might at least entertain a bit.

P.P.S.  TE and I went to my mom’s house this weekend and then went to a nice lunch with her. He brought mom these lovelies…

White hydrangea mixed with purple accents – a bouquet of fresh cut flowers for my mom from TE – so sweet. (above)

P.P.P.S.  So excited…good friend AOB and her hubby DB are going to be in town this weekend.  AOB and I went to college together.  During college, for some reason we started a comedic newsletter called “The Rabid Squirrel”(named after the squirrels on our college campus that were constantly pelting students with nuts and berries)…it was so weird that we would decide out of the blue to try our hand at satirical writing.  I think we only did it for a year or two…but it was fun.  AOB is one of my dearest friends…I rarely get to see her because she lives in Vermont.  So I  can’t wait!

P.P.P.P.S.  Uh oh…running a little behind today.  Must run.  Off to work.  Another week begins!

    I’m thinking apartment #2 is more expensive due to location. But I’m loving to live in apartment #1. No contest.

    I’d say Apartment #1 due to all the skylighting– though it may just be because it’s my personal choice between the two!!

    I’m going to guess that the UES is more expensive than Tribeca…so I think #2 is more expensive.

    P.S. We’re not here to solve the world’s problems so don’t worry. We like looking at all the pretties that you post 🙂

    Have a great week Coco!

    #2 is probably the most expansive with its location by Central park and its 36 closets!!!
    #1 to my opinion is priceless! The Dream loft! Airy and bright, open space. Everything white! Roof top garden. Just gorgeous!

    My guess is #1 – Tribeca is the neighborhood so many people want to live in now. Loved that apartment, the windows and the outdoor space are incredible.

    # 2 is likely more expensive, but #1 knocks one’s socks off!

    I’m with everyone else. Love No. 1 but No. 2 is probably the pricier. Do we win a prize for guessing right?
    The world has plenty of problems I/you/we can’t solve. Always happy for a little diversion.

    This was my first visit to your blog but it certainly won’t be my last. I’m an interior designer specializing in Reception Desks and projects for the office. I’m looking to branch more into custom homes and really appreciate the info an inspiration.

    I sure hope #1 is cheaper…I might can afford it in my next life…LOL
    The outdoor space is to die for.

    #2 because it looks bigger and is in NYC – I’d take it in a heart beat… #firstworldproblems 😀

    So depends on location. I bet number 1 is more expensive because of outdoor space, upgrades and Tribeca is generally a more desirable location that UES today. But, again so dependent on the buildings, amenities and addresses (i.e., is it 5th Avenues in the 60s or in the 90s?)

    Absolutely # 2, though #1 is stunning with beautiful outdoor garden space, for me the choice is #2, it looks so cozy and welcoming….

This 300m² Haussmannian duplex in central Paris wa This 300m² Haussmannian duplex in central Paris was designed to function as both a home and a gallery and the distinction between the two is impossible to find.
Every room treats art and objects with the same weight as furniture, nothing is decorative for its own sake, everything is placed with intention.
The Haussmannian bones, ornate cornicing, herringbone parquet, original stained glass ceiling, stay intact throughout. Natural and handcrafted materials do the rest.

So proud of my dear friend Kristi Bender and her b So proud of my dear friend Kristi Bender and her business partner Wendy Schwartz on the launch of Petal Promenade for @cuff_studio. 👏
This new collection feels like such a beautiful evolution. Inspired by their Manhattan Flower District showroom, it brings together the romance of classic decorative arts with a fresh, modern perspective in a way that feels bold, artistic, and incredibly thoughtful.
If you are attending ICFF 2026, make sure to stop by Booth W1048 and experience Petal Promenade in person. Congratulations, Kristi and Wendy. This collection is truly something special. ✨
Ever wondered what it feels like to have the Eiffe Ever wondered what it feels like to have the Eiffel Tower as your view? These 7 Paris spaces answer that — some hotel suites, some private residences, and each one framing it completely differently. 🫶
A gilded suite where it peers through silk drapes. A terrace set for breakfast with the Tower straight ahead. Contemporary apartments where open French doors bring it almost into the room. Classic Haussmannian grandeur on one end, sculptural modern interiors on the other; same iconic backdrop, seven entirely different ways to live with it.
→ Save this for your next Paris trip or renovation inspo.

This Haussmannian apartment sits directly facing N This Haussmannian apartment sits directly facing Notre-Dame on the Left Bank, and @double_g_interior_design designed the interior to match that setting without competing with it. ✨
The approach was deliberate restraint: restored cornices kept intact, stained oak floors, limestone tones, a mix of vintage furniture and contemporary silhouettes. Every choice earning its place. The light does the rest. Bouncing off mirrors, moving through the neutral walls across the day. 🔅
→ Save this if you’re working with a Haussmannian space and want to let the architecture lead.
