Diane Keaton’s first New York City apartment in the historic San Remo is back on the market for $14.5 million.
The co-op encompasses the full 21st floor of the 27-story building at 145-146 Central Park West, which was built in 1930 and was converted into co-ops in 1972. Famously topped by two iconic Renaissance-style Corinthian towers, it was designed by architect Emery Roth, known for other treasured structures such as the Ritz Tower at 465 Park Ave. and The Eldorado at 300 Central Park West.
The star-studded San Remo’s roster of past and current celebrity residents also include Demi Moore, Bruce Willis, Barry Manilow, Dustin Hoffman, U2 frontman Bono, Rita Hayworth, Glenn Close, Steve Jobs, Steve Martin, Steven Speilberg and Tiger Woods. Madonna, however, was famously rejected when she applied for a listing in 1985.
Those who do live there can do so with their pets, and have access to a state-of-the-art fitness center, a recreation room and a bike room. They are also in the heart of the Upper West Side, steps from both Central Park and the performing arts mecca, Lincoln Center.
In addition to Keaton, the 3,100-square-foot unit 21C, which is being represented by Corcoran’s Dan Fishman and has three beds and three baths, was later owned by media mogul Gordon McLeod, who passed away last month.
The home was listed in March 2018 for $17.5 million by investment banker Larry Slaughter and his wife Constance, who reportedly bought it from McCleod in 2012 for $13.5 million, but evidently didn’t sell for that price.
Its interiors are from luxury design firm Interior Marketing Group (IMG), and feature a library, an over-sized kitchen, a breakfast room and a butler’s pantry, in addition to an office.
“I love the mod eat-in kitchen because it’s quirky and one-of-a-kind,” IMG founder and president Cheryl Eisen told Forbes. “We wanted to really play into that with the design so we added pops of orange and Warhol-inspired piece of artwork.”
Located in the south tower, the unit is accessible directly from the elevator. It displays views of the park and the city skyline from every room, which also contributed to her team’s inspiration, Eisen added.
“We wanted to bring the blue sky inside so we added blue accents in varying shades with decorative throw pillows and accessories,” she said. “Combined with the sleek, modular furnishings and modern art this space beckons back to the days of Annie hall.”
