FACADE WORK AT 9 JAY
A. sent this pics of 9 Jay and its facade work, all part of the Staple Street bridge property that connects the building with an apartment in 67 Hudson. (See the Loft Peeping: Extreme Edition here.) The apartment is no longer on the market, though it can still be shown by the Sotheby’s agents representing owner Zoran Ladicorbic, the American fashion designer from the ‘90s known by his first name only, who bought it in 1985 for $499,000. Price remains $35 mill.
