Award-winning comedienne Joan Rivers died last week in New York at the age of 81...
Before complications of her illness, she lived in a triplex penthouse just a few steps from Fifth Avenue, overlooking Central Park through the beautiful windows from floor to ceiling. Renovated and modernized, this luxury home has two master suites, ballroom with gilded pillars and high ceilings, a gourmet kitchen and three functional fireplaces. The actress has made several attempts to sell her unique flat, and the last time was in 2012, at a cost of $ 30 million. By the way, Muammar Gaddafi, the former Libyan leader, wanted to rent the apartment from the famous comedian, for $ 200,000 a week.
The villa, in which there is this apartment is found, was made of high quality and rare materials back in 1910, and is represents the work of Horace Trumbauer. In 1930, the villa was converted into a building with several apartments, one of which was occupied by Ernest Hemingway.
