The luxury penthouse consists of two floors and is located at the top of the Olympic Tower built by Aristotle Onassis.
It was back in 1972 when Maurizio Gucci moved to New York to work for the Gucci company with his uncle Aldo. Maurizio, the nephew of the founder of the Gucci fashion house, then decided to reside on the top two floors of the Olympic Tower in New York, in an ultra-luxurious penthouse with eight bedrooms.
The impressive apartment has now passed into the hands of sisters Alessandra and Alegria Gucci, who have decided it's time for a new owner.
This apartment spans two floors, the 50th and 51st, and has a total area of 800 square meters, offering incredible views of the city. From its windows, you can see the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Plaza, the Chrysler Building, and St. Patrick's Cathedral.
Located within the Olympic Tower on the iconic Fifth Avenue in New York, it boasts nearly 5-meter-high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, offering truly mesmerizing views. Inside, there is a spiral staircase and two private elevators that lead directly to the apartment. Eight bedrooms are located on the 50th floor, along with eight bathrooms. Its two main suites offer all amenities, including a whirlpool tub and sauna, while each of the remaining bedrooms has its own bathroom.
On the 51st floor, there are a living room, two dining rooms, a wood-paneled library, a huge entertainment room, and a cinema with skylights overlooking the New York skyline and the only real fireplace in the entire building. There is also a gym, a staff kitchen, and another kitchen with windows overlooking the Empire State Building.
