Wouldn't Want To Be The Window Cleaner!

Have you got a spare £59,500,292.67 in your back pocket? Would you like a view like this? Yes? Well, you can put your name down for one of the 104 apartments that will be available next year in what is now the tallest residential site in the Western hemisphere - 432 Park Avenue, New York. These fabulous residences actually start at a mere £10.5 million (approx) but you will have to pay the £59+ million if you want the penthouse.

A good morning: Harry Macklowe, chairman of Macklowe Properties, said: 'We are proud to have created a New York City landmark that can be seen throughout all five boroughs, and which will enhance our city’s iconic skyline.' Above, another view of New York from the property

This amazing structure is 1,396 feet tall and towers over the Empire State Building (1,250ft) and the Chrysler Building (1,046ft)

Contrast: At 1,396 feet, 432 Park Avenue (left), in midtown Manhattan, towers over the Empire State Building (right), which is 1,250 feet
432 Park Avenue

Imagine waking up to these views every morning. Not sure I'd be too happy being on the 96th floor if the lift went out! Mind you, if I could afford the penthouse....I could probably afford a helicopter to pick me up from the roof if that happened.

A view to wake up to: Designed by architect Rafael Viñoly, the 96-story condo offers 104 units, ranging from $16.95million to $95million

Stunning: This marble bathroom at 432 Park Avenue - which stands at a staggering 1,396 feet - offers a breathtaking view of New York
What...no curtains?

An immaculate kitchen: The units, all built over 365 feet and designed by Deborah Berke, also feature 12.5-foot ceilings and solid oak floors

Sprawling: The building in midtown Manhattan today became the tallest residential site in the Western Hemisphere. Above, is a living room in the skyscraper

    If I lived in there I would have to lie on the floor the whole time. Thinking about it is making me dizzy....
