Billionaire WeWork Co-Founder Adam Neumann Lists Elegant Triplex in Mahattan for $37.5M

Adam Neumann listed his ethereal Manhattan condo this month. The asking price for the triplex penthouse with the heavenly execution? $37.5 million. Neumann purchased the property in 2017, in pieces: $18 million for the duplex penthouse, and nearly $17 million for the fifth floor and a pair of first floor apartments.

The building is situated more or less in the heart of Gramercy Park, in the Historic District, and dates to 1920. According to ownership, it helped establish the ‘Block Beautiful’ urban oasis in the area. It was more or less sensitively converted to condos around the middle of the last decade.

The unit is one of seven in the building, and comprises the top three floors. The interiors are very pale, with an off-white palette that includes the chevron-pattern hardwood. A spiral staircase services all three floors.

The nearly 8,000 square-foot unit’s layout places the master suite on the lower floor, and devotes the entire floor—at one time, a three-bedroom apartment—to this sanctuary, with a sitting area, a creative workspace, a pair of bathrooms, and a dressing room filling out the level. The middle floor contains the other four bedrooms, with two of them set up as guest suites. The upper floor is dedicated to the shared living spaces. There is a rooftop deck, and a staff apartment on the first floor of the building is inclusive.

Neumann co-founded WeWork in 2010; he parted ways with the company last year. His net worth is around $1 billion.
