NYC Penthouse from ‘Owning Manhattan’ Finds a Buyer

A reality TV-famous penthouse—described as a “Malibu Beach house in the middle of Manhattan”—is officially in contract, Gimme Shelter has learned.

The luxurious duplex, perched atop the landmarked Cast Iron House in Tribeca, played a starring role in the first season of Netflix’s Owning Manhattan. Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning Japanese architect Shigeru Ban, the 3,809-square-foot residence at 67 Franklin St. (also known as 359 Broadway) was last listed for $12 million.

Originally transformed into residences in 2019, the home boasts soaring 20-foot ceilings, radiant-heated limestone floors, and a sprawling 1,510-square-foot wraparound terrace with city views. The four-bedroom, 3½-bathroom penthouse opens via a key-locked elevator into a grand entry hall, leading to an open-concept living and dining area. A sleek chef’s kitchen, complete with a breakfast bar, adds to the home’s modern appeal.

The main bedroom suite, located on the upper level, features sliding glass windows, a windowed walk-in closet, and an ensuite spa-like bath with radiant-heated marble floors. Additional design details include white oak floors, high ceilings, and a flexible home office or den that can double as a fifth bedroom. Sliding glass walls seamlessly connect the indoor and outdoor spaces, reinforcing the home’s airy, coastal aesthetic.

The Cast Iron House itself is a piece of history, originally built in 1881 by James White. Its six-story neoclassical facade remains intact, while modern amenities include a gym, a dance/yoga studio, a children’s playroom, bike storage, and a landscaped courtyard.

The final sale price remains undisclosed, though sources indicate it was an all-cash deal that closed just under the $12 million asking price. The listing brokers—Jordan Hurt, Ryan Serhant, and Krista Nickols—also represented the buyer. Hurt, currently filming season two of Owning Manhattan in Miami, is expected to showcase more high-profile homes when the show returns.
