Angels Outfielder Bobby Abreu has been trying to sell his 2 bedroom/2 bathroom apartment on the 37th floor of One Beacon Court for quite some time – and he’s finally out! When the apartment hit the market in May of 2008, Abreu was asking $7.9 million, which, of course, didn’t fly (pun intended). The New York Times reports that Abreu has finally sold his unit to the tune of $5.1 million. Since Abreu bought the apartment for for $3.8 million in 2005, he’s still making quite a hefty profit on the sale – just not as much as he’d hoped to make.
However, apparently Abreu isn’t the only one vying to get out of his contract at One Beacon Court. Curbed reports, “Abreu isn’t the only One Beacon Court escapee to finally throw off the chains tying him to 151 East 58th Street. Italian playboy and Formula One racing magnate Flavio Briatoreis also on his way out of his #PH53W. After giving the zebra-pattern-furnished place a $2 million chop, Briatore’s pad went into contract last week. Still available: Johnny Damon’s old place on the 39th floor.”
Well, ladies and gents, how much would you pay for Johnny Damon’s pad? Don’t know about you, but if we had the capital, we’d put down a pretty penny to live in the former home of a legend!
