Real estate hype aside, GHK Properties is calling this "Dumbo's Most Spectacular Building" and it's hard to disagree when you see the triplex that crowns it. We couldn't help but notice the striking similarity to the Bruce Wayne-funded Gotham Clocktower from the DC comic book, Birds of Prey, and with 360-degree views of Gotham and the possibility of setting up a covert crime-fighting operation from this base, it almost seems like a steal.
This almost offensively splendid 7,000-square-foot penthouse is located right inside the building's clock tower, provides 360-degree views, and gives you the freedom to sabotage your neighbors' scheduling by changing the clock times to whatever you damn well please. I mean if you're going to spend $23.5 million on an apartment, it may as well come with the privilege of resetting New York City's time zone to your individual liking.

I want that.
best title yet!
There are stairs to get to the elevator, that just seems dumb. other then that, wet dream of an apt.
Seems pretty ok for students flat sharing.
No dumba$$, the stairs go to the second flr, it spirals around the elevator. You have the option to use either. Look closer!
So this is the setting (the last pics) for that Kohler WC! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8jCP_-oBgQ&feature=player_embedded obviously, is not a bathroom as far as I see ;)
No, the elevator opens onto the platform 4 stairs up. You need a pit under a lift to go down to floor level, and I'd guess that's somebody's ceiling.
The clocks would worry me. They look cool, but clocks like that are usually pretty loud - if ticking bothers you, this would be way worse.
Is the clock in the exterior photo covered in the back? So the apartment has three of the four clocks as windows?
