David Salle #2

(bron: StreetEasy)

"David Salle’s spectacular 10,564-square-foot mansion at the edge of Brooklyn’s historic Fort Greene neighborhood is on the market for a modest $10-million, and it comes complete with a full gym, two-car garage, a huge rooftop addition, and high-ceilinged living room that makes it, according to one over-the-moon real estate writer for the New York Daily News, the “top townhouse for sale in all of New York City.”

As you’d expect, the mansion also features a huge ground-floor studio space, where Salle created many of the mixed-media paintings in his current exhibition at Lever House. Salle House at 81 Hanson Place is actually made up of two historic buildings — a schoolhouse from the 1830s and a townhouse from the 1860s — fused together with a contemporary, steel-clad addition.

Salle, who moved to Fort Greene from Tribeca in 2002, is considering relocating to more artistically-inclined Brooklyn nabes like Gowanus or Red Hook. “It’s just time to go,” he told the Daily News." (bron: Blouin Artinfo, tekst: Benjamin Sutton)
