Adam Neumann, the ousted founder of former unicorn co-working giant WeWork, is once again attempting to offload his Manhattan penthouse triplex, the New York Times reports . It’s at least the third time he’s tried selling it — and now, a sale at its current asking price would mark a loss. The disgraced CEO has been trying to sell the six-bedroom aerie at 78 Irving Place since 2019, when he quietly attempted to shop it off-market, before formally listing it for sale in 2020 with a price tag of $37.
5 million. Then, last summer , the now 45-year-old put the Gramercy Park abode back on the market for a discounted $32 million. And now, as he continues downsizing his real-estate portfolio following WeWork’s fall from grace in 2019, he’s giving it yet another shot — with a further discounted ask of $24.
99 million. “The penthouse at 78 Irving offers a prospective buyer to come home to a romantic, Parisian-inspired ..
. townhouse in one of New York’s most storied and artistically rich blocks,” Douglas Elliman agents Eleonora Srugo and Jordyn Taylor Braff, who share the listing , told The Post in a statement. “We are honored to have a listing with so much whimsical charm, beautiful design and gracious rooms at the current asking price.
” When Neumann and his wife, fellow WeWork co-founder Rebekah Neumann, 46 — who counts Gwenyth Paltrow as a first cousin — purchased the apartment in 2017, it was two separate units, one on the top floor and one a duplex just belo.
