Chelsea Clinton’s Former Flatiron Condo Already Has a Buyer
New York Observer ^ | 6/8/2016 | Morgan Halberg

Maybe it was Hilary Clinton clinching the nomination that finally did it for the buyers, but just 18 days after the NoMad condo where Chelsea Clinton once resided with her husband, Marc Mezvinsky, hit the market, it’s already in contract.

The three-bedroom, 2.5-bath abode is on the tenth floor of 225 Fifth Avenue, and served as the residence of Clinton and Mezvinsky shortly after they married. The couple subsequently decided to upgrade their digs, and headed a few blocks away to the Whitman, where they purchased a larger, $10.5 million apartment that they still reside in.

So although most traces of the former first daughter have likely disappeared by now, the new buyer gets major bragging rights–how many people can say that they own the same apartment as someone who has resided in the White House (and may be visiting there a lot come January)?

The seller of the Grand Madison pad, Osgood Hutchinson, LLC, paid $4.75 million for the J-line unit in the prewar building in 2013, but perhaps they, like Clinton, craved something more regal.

Not that the Grand Madison apartment is shabby—after all, we hear that Corcoran brokers Karin Posvar Picket and Katherine Cortez received numerous bids on the 1,922-square-foot home, last listed for $6 million.

The home has a lot to like: customized lighting, built-in speakers, and electronic shades throughout, as well as southern views of Madison Square Park and the Clock Tower, western exposures and ten-foot ceilings. Or maybe the buyer just happens to be a particularly big fan of a political family that includes a past president and a current presidential nominee.

Being that high up makes it much more easier to piss on people. Maybe she needs to get higher and cover more people?

Chelsea tried so hard, but she just couldn’t care about money, so she’ll probably just give it away to some needy family.

That place is probably loaded with spy cameras and listening devices.

I didn’t think Chelsea had that type of money herself. Hmm I wonder if Big Momma’s selling state secrets for profit treason money paid for it?

Well, thank goodness they have been able to get out of that hovel, and found a place that is more suitable.

Remember, she said can’t care about money - she just can’t.

It does look tiny, not appealing at all. I am so thankful that I live on the ground, in a house with a big wooded yard but still close to everything. I have friends who live on the 20th floor of a building and they love it.

I would jump out the window if that was the best I could do.

Thanks for posting floor plan. Don’t know about the bedrooms exiting into the foyer, but nice, workable floor plan. Their “compass logo” is strange!

I agree.

I have a 2BR condo that I like better that this one.

I’m surprised.

It’s not a logo. It shows the orientation of the building or in this case the apartment.

“Chelsea and hubby were incredibly lucky. Their old unit, initially priced at $8.7 million, became the object of a bidding war...with the lucky winner paying a little over $257 million for the unit. Efforts to contact the buyer went unanswered. However, the buyer’s address appears to be a large bank in Manhattan.”

Chelsea seems to have the same investing smarts Moms had.

Click the picture to go to youtube and hear Hillary cackle about getting the brutal, violent rapist of a 12-year-old girl just 2 months in jail (time already served) instead of 40 years in hard-time prison.

If the Trump campaign makes ads of this, Hillary is toast.
