A $48 million penthouse in a new Manhattan skyscraper has a rather generous bonus included with purchase.
In addition to the 7,028-square-foot duplex penthouse at the Madison Square Park Tower – located at 45 East 22nd Street – buyers will also get two in-building parking spots and two studio apartments, which the listing notes could be “for staff or guests.” The studio apartments are also located within the same tower.
According to the Wall Street Journal, those parking spots usually cost $500,000 each.
Penthouse A itself has five bedrooms and five-and-a-half bathrooms.
Let’s take a look around the duplex and the building. It was developed by Bruce Eichner and is being listed by Fredrik Eklund and John Gomes of Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
The unfurnished penthouse has 23-foot ceilings, which are emphasized by dramatic glass walls in parts of the apartment.
Those windows offer some pretty dramatic views, both to the north ...
... and to the south.
The 65-story glass skyscraper is the tallest in its Flatiron District neighborhood, and because of various zoning laws surrounding it, its fantastic views won't be obstructed.

It won't be ready for move-in until 2018, but the renderings give a sense of what owners can expect as far as the building's amenities. There's a basketball court ...
... a billiards room and terrace on the fifth floor ...
... and a fitness center, as well as a golf simulator.
There will also be a library on the lobby level.
The listing hasn't made clear which studio apartments will be sold to the penthouse buyer, or what exactly those units will look like.
