From $80 million to $31 million
The Hilfigers combined two units in 2008 and redesigned them, and the work reportedly cost another $20 million. The “original glamour of a bygone era coupled with 21st century conveniences” was the stated aim, and the finishes were chosen to restore the property to that look. The price began at $80 million in 2013 and was cut repeatedly, including a drop to $50 million, until a buyer closed in 2019. A broker noted that spaces like this take longer to sell than comparable apartments.
The reported buyer was Terry Taylor, a car dealership owner from Palm Beach. The sale reportedly included about $2 million of art and furnishings.
Inside
The home has five bedrooms and five and a half baths, an all-American foyer, a 1950s style retro kitchen, a dining room lit by neon with golden walls, and a children’s playroom. There is a private dining area under a dome ceiling and a wood-paneled library. The decor was designed to suit Hilfiger’s Warhol collection, which was not part of the listing. The home sits in the Plaza Hotel, a 20-story hotel and condominium building in Midtown Manhattan.
