“it is the most expensive unit currently available in the building”
Looks like it might be the most expensive non-combined unit in the building *ever*. By $200k.

+CPI = $704.
This one had been listed for rent for $6,000/mo, which implies a value of ~$700k.
Feels too steep for the building.
Views are great, but I can’t imagine paying this much money and not having any private outdoor space.
