It’s asking for almost three times the $22.71 million the couple paid for the penthouse in 2008. The apartment is furnished in the style of Marie Antoinette, for which the Kogans are famous.
The sale is handled by Raquel Wasserman, a licensed broker at Gold Standard Realty.
No less majestic is the apartment of the spouses in the Plaza.
This apartment with four bedrooms, four full bathrooms and a separate toilet is being sold by Wasserman. The residence is adorned with “24 carat gold trim, Venetian plaster, paneled walls, vaulted ceilings, ornate chandeliers and sconces. As well as custom-made cabinets and… a castle-like turret,” the ad reads.
The dining room, living room and library overlook Central Park. The building has a concierge, a doorman, a gym, a SPA center, valet and maid services are available.
The couple bought the apartment as two separate units for $26 million in 2007 and then combined them.

The broker for the sale was Adam Rothman of Douglas Elliman.
The Koganovs also own a $250 million estate in Israel, modeled after the White House and Versailles.
