    clocktower-reno-winter-09.jpgBack in June, we heard that David Walentas was finally putting the clocktower apartment at One Main Street (shown at right under construction earlier this year) on the market. The New York Times reported on Friday that this colossal triplex is finally posted, for $25 million. The Times notes that the highest price ever paid for a home in Brooklyn was $11 million in 2006, and the highest for a condo was $7 million, also at One Main Street, in 2008. Even though the market is in a slump, Mr. Walentas said that the space, a three-floor, 6,288-square-foot apartment with four functional 14-foot clocks, is such a unique home that it will require a one-of-a-kind buyer willing to foot the bill.
