When Ralph Lauren moved house in 2022, he didn\u2019t leave the building. The fashion mogul and his wife, Ricky, had lived at 1107 Fifth Avenue (Upper East Side of Manhattan) for four decades. Their solution to wanting a change? Move to a different apartment at the same address.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s a notable endorsement for any building \u2013 and now, according to Country & Town House<\/a>, a 10-room apartment on the ninth floor is on the market for US$11.5 million (AUD $16 million).<\/p>\n

The full-floor residence sits at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 92nd Street in Carnegie Hill, with views across Central Park, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir and the George Washington Bridge.<\/p>\n

The corner primary suite stretches 27 feet along Fifth Avenue, offering western park views and northern sightlines toward the Jewish Museum.<\/p>\n

The apartment includes four bedrooms, five bathrooms, a library, a 24-foot gallery entrance, an oversized living room, a formal dining room and a home gym.<\/p>\n

All elevators in the building are private \u2013 residents won\u2019t cross paths in the lift \u2013 and there\u2019s a communal rooftop garden.<\/p>\n

The building itself has an unusual provenance. Built in 1924, it stands on the former site of cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post Hutton\u2019s mansion. <\/p>\n

When developers convinced Marjorie to sell, they recreated her home on the building\u2019s top three floors, fitting her original interiors into the new penthouse.<\/p>\n

Ralph Lauren has written about his attachment to the address in his memoir Ralph Lauren: A Way of Living, describing his desire for the apartment to feel like \u201ca downtown loft, but uptown on Fifth Avenue\u201d \u2013 open, light-filled and oriented around Central Park views. <\/p>\n

He called it their \u201creal first home,\u201d a place with room for their three children and space for the couple to discover who they were.<\/p>\n

The original apartment was designed by the late, great interior designer Angelo Donghia. After three decades, Ralph and Ricky completed a full renovation in 2012, with Ralph writing that the changes made the space feel larger, more modern, and better suited to how their lives had evolved.<\/p>\n

Neither Ralph\u2019s former apartment nor his current residence is for sale. The property is listed through John D Wood International and available to view via Coldwell Banker Luxury<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A full-floor apartment in the fashion mogul\u2019s iconic Fifth Avenue address has hit the market for US$11.5 million…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":243424,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[75,84,83,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-243423","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-manhattan","tag-manhattan","tag-manhattan-headlines","tag-manhattan-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243423","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=243423"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243423\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/243424"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=243423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=243423"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=243423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
