Milwaukee Bucks Owner Wes Edens Lands $20 Million Manhattan Penthouse
It takes a certain amount of chutzpah to ask for a $5 million discount — but then again, folks who can afford to pay for something expensive enough to be discounted millions are typically powerful, larger-than-life business moguls. Among their ranks is Wes Edens, co-owner of the Milwaukee Bucks basketball team and a majority share-holder of English Premier League club Aston Villa, who was able to knock $5 million off the listing price of a futuristic Manhattan condo.
The sleek, glassy home, listed for just under $25 million at the time of sale, overlooks the trendy
High-Line pedestrian path in Chelsea and sits atop an eye-catching building crafted by the late, award-winning architect
Zaha Hadid. In fact, it was one of the last developments to be blessed with her signature chic and curvy aesthetic before
she died at 65in 2016.
