All About the Clocktower
The New York Times got their hands on the images way back in August but there’s finally an official website up to market the unique four-floor residence atop One Main Street in Dumbo known as the ClockTower. You see, when you’re asking $25 million, it’s worth building a standalone website. Pretty spectacular.

Basically, the only people who could afford this place that would have ANY reason to want such an apartment in Brooklyn would be Prokhorov (the potential Nets owner) or LeBron (were he to sign with the Nets).
oops, sorry about the double post/edit.
fsrq – Its neither here or there, but if I were to become a billionaire, I would definitely buy in Brooklyn.
Either Old Fulton Ferry for the views of the bridges and Manhattan or some double mansion in one of the brownstone nabes – or likely both. I’d use Clock Tower as office/party space and do most of my living in the old house. Ahh, a man can dream can’t he?
Manhattan’s for visiting, not living in.

Oh and there was no kitchen and bathroom in ’99 either. It was a raw space with a ladder to the upper level. But it still looks the same to me from $4 million to $25 million years.
I saw this place years ago for curiosity when it was on the market. I would say it was in 1999-2000. Just added stairs, instead of a ladder. It looks almost exactly the same..they were asking approx. $4 million then.
When I was in there, the clocks were active, it was pretty quiet, and you could not hear any ticking or any other noise coming from the machinery. The clocks are on the floor with the kitcen, living and dining room, so I’m not sure that putting shades on the clock is a big deal. All the bedrooms are on the upper floors. Plus, there’s a bathub in what i assume is the master bath that has it’s own window framing the statue of liberty. Pretty sweet.
An we know how well that ended, ML.
in the seventeenth century people in the Netherlands paid the equivalent of a millions dollars for a single parrot tulip bulb.
