Alec Baldwin suffers from a difficult situation in classic New York. His apartment has “problems”, as he tells the shooting of the TLC crew Baldwins. Mainly, a problem: “We know it’s too small.” At the top of the television team hanging around their cables and lights, the actor’s penthouse duplex Came House holds Hilaria, his wife, their seven children, four dogs, four cats and, probably, a small army of nannies. Everyone shares rooms: the three boys are in two berths, a younger son and a girl divided another room, and the eleven year old shares a room with what looks like a massaster. Apart from the kitchen, there is a fascinating dog dog, in the dining room, there is a cat tree, and the best place for storage seems to be a corridor, which is stacked with plastic bins.

A visit to the space in the show includes the eldest girl’s room. Just out of the framework, here is an exercise equipment that is probably not useful for an 11 -year -old child.

The Baldwins live in what is, on any other title, a trophy apartment. In 2011, Baldwin bought the last building sponsor unit – a 4,137 square foot bathroom duplex, four and a half bedrooms with terraces, a breakfast and a separate dining room, a living room and a large room spread over two floors. It was a sale of $ 11.7 million that industry had been speculation on approximately for a yearPartly because it was a kind of test of a new buyer in the city center. Does anyone with the required money wanted to live the 10th is – the territory of Nyu? Fourteen years later, the question has changed. Can they may be supporting so many Baldwins?

Accessuhire House went up in 1928 and was designed by Emery Roth, better known for Swankier Uptown blocks pre-war including GoldTHE Beresfordand the Normandy. But the Roth building on East 10th, at the corner of University Place, was built for people who lived in the city center at that time, workers who wanted to be near their jobs in hotels, department stores and clubsor artists who could trip Lüchow and the Brevoort. Units –131 in total – were small and had become smaller when they reached the top floor, with “penthouses” who were probably used by maid who needed terraces to dry the laundry. But the city center has become chic, and in the 2000s, a developer sniffed the opportunity to condro-iif pre-war With beautiful bones (Gothic details inside, and scrolling and urns outside). Cheshire Group LLC pushed Tenants at the market rate tried to attract tenants controlled by rent (some still take into account), then started to combine what they could. “We tried to do the apartments gracious“Remember Robert McCainA broker who helped work on floor plans and sell the first units. “The idea of ​​the Devonshire put a building in the city center in the city.” Wendy ArriZ, a Sotheby broker Who made three transactions in the building, described this in this way: “It looks like an adult building” – nothing like the condos adjacent to the Nyu dormitory, or new constructions in madmen like 150 Charles. “It’s very traditional, solid. Its simplicity is part of its elegance. For me, he has a kind of West Side atmosphere. »»

This had to call on Baldwin. He lived in another Roth building – the GoldOn Central Park West (a district that felt “more real … not a little kind of jewel, a privileged pocket of the city”, it said to New York Times in the summer of 2011) before buying at the Cameronshire. When the gossip columnists were windy, they extended He was dragged to the city center by Hilaria, who taught yoga in a studio she co-founded, not even Two houses.

McCain, the broker who helped create floor plans, sold the original sponsor units – including the Baldwins penthouse. But he was fourteen years and he did not remember exactly how the unit was presented, or if the couple insisted for changes. (“They were a pleasure to work with it,” he said, like an accomplished seller.) Fortunately, the The list survives onlineAnd shows a large room at the upper level with terraces that connect to the main level via a slightly curved staircase with a dark wooden handrail that looks more like 1910 than 2010. The landing is right next to an open and breakfast kitchen room that looks by the building courtyard. Through this breakfast room is a living room and, beyond, it is a wing with a bedroom. On the other side of the kitchen, a large room leads to a formal dining room. Or turn in the other direction for a room, an office and the primary room smaller with a walk-in so large that it is described on the plans like a cloakroom.

Obviously, it was not enough space. In June 2012, the same month they got married, Hilaria bought a $ 1.2 million in a room Apartment next to its name, just behind the wall of this main locker room. They have never deposited a paperwork to obtain a license to shoot down these walls – which helps to explain what has become a Mystery for redditors: what is the floor of that “chaotic“” apartment – And in a way, does it include a public corridor? One of these posters has spent years scratching the publications of Hilaria Baldwin and drawing public documents in order to conjecture That the Baldwins now have about 6,086 square feet in the building and 760 square feet of terrace. This calculation does not include what seems to be a possibly public corridor from which Hilaria regularly publishes selfies – identifiable from a mirror which is in front of an elevator, in a room with cold lighting, a gray terrazzo and what could be – allegedly – the doors of their neighbors. (But the shots Show the family using the apparently public space with total abandonment – make pumps, yoga, walk barefoot, eat icy lollipops and even store their shoes. “Fucking rude!” to a Redditor.)

David Man, and architect Who lived in their corridor upstairs, at the level of the penthouse, did not find the Baldwins coarse at all. If anything, he liked to be their neighbor, chatting with Alec during a first at Sunshine Landmark, or nodding when he arrived and leaving – even gathering together by paparazzi. “He spent a lot of time in the hall with his dogs and walking his dogs,” said Mann. “My impression was that he just wanted to get out of the apartment.” The building changed around the arrival of the Baldwins – Mann arrived in the 1980s, paying only $ 463 per month for a rent studio, when the place was filled with characters who had arrived in the 1930s and 1940s (this included a designer for Oleg Cassini, Mildred Fox AsterbloomWho would invite him to drinks at sunset.) “It was exactly what you expected in the village. Everyone was creative, wonderful, of an interesting environment, ”he says. “I think now, everyone is rich. Or… very rich. “Mann adored his corner penthouse, surrounded by romantic terraces of terracotta and brick Lut listed in 2016 – even he needed more space. (It was 410 square feet, with a closet.) Mann gave it to Baldwin before putting it on the market, he said. “It was a kind of fun conversation,” said Mann, who remembered that Alec or his broker saying “‘No, I have another child and I’m going to leave.” But he didn’t do it. He’s still there.

The couple does not seem to have changed much; The lighting devices were installed in 2010.

The year Mann moved, the Baldwins were spotted Buy a Chelsea penthouse of $ 16.5 and $ 16.6 million Nomad Condo. They apparently refused to buy either, and instead, in 2017, they developed in the owl – paying $ 1.3 million for a studio Who is behind the room wing in the living room and the dining room. In 2019, after Arrival of the child fourthey bought the penthouse above this studio For $ 1.7 million. And the permits deposited with the city show that in 2022, they finished a job of $ 340,000 to combine them with the rest of the apartment. The Internet detective who went deeply on the ground used family media photos to suggest That the Baldwins moved their main room in this penthouse and moved the three boys in the studio below.

The Baldwins bought the 12th unit in 2011. It is at the center of this plan, in the dive of the form in the building, with windows on the courtyard and on the 10th East rue. Later, they acquired a studio on one side (12g) and one room on the other (12C).

The plans showed the level of the penthouse. Three of the six spaces here were the upper floors of the duplexes on the 12th floor. The Baldwin unit is 12th – and was designed with a large 600 square feet room surrounded by terraces on the top floor, ideal for a splashing party. They then acquired the 639 square feet penthouse next to it (PHG).

But even though the Baldwins did this work and moved, they were shopping in the apartment, according to “Sources” that have scrambled New York Post in 2020. Two years later, they seemed to change their welds and listed the family’s house in East Hampton – which is always offered, And that Alec announced with a personal video (“Forlorn”, even). Arriz, the Sotheby broker who worked in the building, managed to catch Baldwins The other evening, and considered that it could be another announcement for family real estate if they actually seek to sell. But she did not finish the episode.
