The former Astronomer CEO who launched<\/a> to viral infamy in July for his Coldplay concert “kiss cam” moment, has swiftly sold his luxury residence.<\/p>\n Andy Byron’s full-floor condominium, located on Washington Street, closed for $5.8 million, with the deed appearing in municipal records Nov. 18, Crain\u2019s New York Business reported<\/a>. Byron and his wife, Megan, bought the condominium in 2022 for $5.4 million from the building’s developer, Veracity Partners.<\/p>\n Don’t Miss:<\/p>\n The residence spans 2,800 square feet in the Tribeca neighborhood, featuring four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, and an open kitchen equipped with a wine refrigerator, Crain\u2019s said.\u00a0 It has a primary bedroom suite with a walk-in closet, and a living room with exposed brick walls.<\/p>\n The deal closed quickly without any public listing, Crain\u2019s reported. The couple had a signed contract on Sept. 16, Crain’s reported citing the deed, which was approximately two months after the concert incident. The couple finalized the sale on Nov. 6.<\/p>\n Charlotte Tenorio and Patrick Smith, both appearing to work as corporate lawyers based on public records, purchased the property, Crain\u2019s reported.<\/p>\n Byron\u2019s departure from Astronomer and his Manhattan home comes after the married executive was filmed July 16 embracing the company’s chief people officer, Kristin Cabot. Despite the public controversy, the Byrons currently share an address at a colonial-style residence in Northborough, Massachusetts, Crain’s reported citing public records.<\/p>\n Trending: From Moxy Hotels to $12B in Real Estate \u2014 The Firm Behind NYC’s Trendiest Properties Is Letting Individual Investors In.<\/a><\/p>\n Cabot submitted divorce paperwork on Aug. 13, however, a spokeswoman for her husband had previously told<\/a> People magazine that the pair had already separated before the concert took place.<\/p>\n Astronomer launched<\/a> an investigation into the “kiss cam” incident at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts in July, suggesting the intimate relationship between Byron and Cabot was unknown to the firm’s board.<\/p>\n “Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted,” the company later said<\/a> in a statement posted on LinkedIn, reiterating Chief Product Officer Pete DeJoy as interim CEO.<\/p>\n See Also: This Jeff Bezos-backed startup will allow you to become a landlord in just 10 minutes, with minimum investments as low as $100<\/a>.<\/p>\n Astronomer, established<\/a> in 2015, focuses on streamlining interactions with artificial intelligence applications.
