J. Christopher Flowers’ Harkness Mansion, which he bought in 2006 for a record price of $53million, was recently dethroned by Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev. At $88million, his abode in Manhattan is now the most expensive apartment in the Big Apple. It was sold by Citigroup’s former CEO, Sandy Weill and his wife Joan, who had purchased this place for $42.4million. The couple have decided to donate the proceeds of the sale to charity. The 6,744 square feet space houses 10 rooms and has a beautiful view of Central Park. The ceilings and windows of the apartment have been built very high, giving the whole place a very grand look. This pricey purchase also has seven walk in closets, a 2,077 sq ft wrap-around terrace, and a den with a bar attached. This is not Mr. Rybolovlev’s first real estate purchase in the United States. In 2008, he purchased Maison L’Amitie, Donald Trump’s 33,000 sq ft Florida estate for an eye popping $95 million! But the interesting bit is that he might not even be able to hold on to this property. There is trouble in paradise for the 93rd richest person in the world. He is in the middle of a divorce with his wife for 23 years, Elena, which is expected to reduce his bank balance of approximately $9.5 by around $3.5 billion. This along with a number of properties scattered all over the globe, a $112million yacht, and paintings by Paul Gauguin and Pablo Picasso could go to his wife as part of the divorce settlement.
