How hard is it to buy an apartment in Trump Tower, the president-elect’s New York City residence and home base of his empire? Built in 1983 for $200 million, many of its apartments have spectacular views of the city and Central Park. It is not hard to get one, for people who can spend over $2 million and brave massive unruly crowds.
According to City Realty, there are 11 apartments for sale in Trump Tower, at price ranges between $2.1 million for a one-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom 1,052 sq. ft. on the 31st floor to one for $11 million. The $11 million buys a two-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom in 2,200 on the 58th floor.
