Ever wanted to see what $100 million dollars would get you in New York?

Well, it finally happened: the real estate market of New York City is now in the 9-digit range, according the the Daily News:

A mystery buyer dropped a staggering $100.47 million on the penthouse apartment, which occupies the entire 89th and 90th floors of One57, the high-end apartment tower overlooking Central Park at 157 W. 57th St., according to city records.

The property is the first single-family home to sell for more than $100 million in the city’s history.

The previous record for a closed deal was held by Ekaterina Rybolovleva, daughter of Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev, who paid $88 million for a condo at 15 Central Park West nearly four years ago.

As though that's not crazy enough, it's predicted to be just the beginning:

“This is going to set a new benchmark for real estate in New York, especially in new developments,” said Ben Benalloul of brokerage RLTY NYC. “I think this is a record we’re going to see broken several times over the next two years.”

 

The idea of having that much money is staggering in and of itself, but to drop it all on one abode? I guess if you're going to spend that kind of money, these specs aren't too shabby:

The jaw-dropping, 11,000-square-foot pad has six bedrooms, seven bathrooms and two powder rooms, not to mention stellar Central Park and city views.
