A new brownstone has hit the market at 37 West 70th Street. Asking $17,950,000, the 7,200 square foot brownstone comes with 13 rooms, 6 beds and 4 baths. The brownstone was originally built in 1891 by Gilbert Schellenger, and it has an incredible history of former owner-occupants.
One previous owner was fashion icon Perry Ellis. In the 1980s, he renovated the house while restoring all original details; he added floor-to-ceiling French casement windows, plus Art Deco bathrooms from The Savoy Hotel in London.
