Last Week's Big Closings

A high floor and high hopes at the Ritz-Carlton

This week's biggest closing was the entire 33rd floor of the Residences at the Ritz-Carlton at 50 Central Park South. The sellers were co-chairman of Oaktree Capital Howard Marks and his wife, Nancy, who bought the 4,500 square-foot pad in 2007 for $18.8 million, and have been trying to sell it since 2012, when they listed it for $50 million. The apartment sold this week for $25M. Find out where else the week's biggest-ticket buys were, below.

Perhaps breathtaking Central Park and city views, a private guest suite and access to Ritz-Carlton amenities like a health club, the La Prairie Spa, a club lounge and more don't count for quite as much as they once did.
