As costly as Blunt and Krasinski’s new home is, it’s actually not the most expensive sale at the Standish. That award goes to Matt Damon, who paid $16.75 million for the building’s penthouse last year, setting a record for the priciest residential sale in the entire borough.
The listings weren’t public, so there are no details on the unit, but the building offers concierge services, a fitness center, children’s playroom, a bike room, and a 24-hour doorman. As 6sqft previously reported, “Designed by Frank S. Lowe and built in 1903, The Standish is a 12-story Beaux-Arts building that originally served as a 122-key hotel. It was converted in 2007 into 90 rental units and then in 2015, after DDG and Westbrook Partners acquired the property for $60 million, the building was converted into 29 condo apartments.”
