This week’s unattainable apartment was first featured on MyUpperWest in 2010. At the time, the 8,000-square-foot awe-inspiring penthouse on the 74th and 75th floors was actually a combination of two apartments: one unit owned by Steven Fedler (who allegedly obtained his fortune through Miss Cleo calls) and the other owned by Douglas Von Allmen (a victim of Ponzi schemer Scott Rothstein). It was listed for $57.5 million. Yes, $57.5 million.

Apparently it was literally unattainable at that price, and the unit owned by Von Allmen was sold seperately to an “unnamed Russian tycoon” for $15.7 million last August.

Now, Curbed reports that Fedler has put his unit back on the market. It can be yours for the low, low price of $44,950,000. (The original asking price was only $35MM, then it jumped to $38.5MM, and now $44.95MM).

Located on a PH floor of the Time Warner Center, this 4,400-square-foot home offers 14-foot ceilings, (ceiling heights can be raised 14 to 16 feet and there are additional window that can be opened), and 70-linear-feet on Central Park as well unparalleled jet liner views of the entire city including the GW bridge, panoramic views of Central Park, the East River, the Chrysler building, Empire State Building, Wall Street, the Statue of Liberty and due west over the Hudson.

A 40-foot great room has an adjacent 30-foot master bedroom suite facing the Park. Additionally, the home features four large bedrooms, his and her master marble baths, 4 1/2 additional marble baths, a gorgeous wood paneled library, and a huge media room/family room with panoramic views. There are two kitchens. The enormous main kitchen is eat in, finished with verbena wood cabinets, marble floors, stainless steel top of the line appliances. There is another smaller kitchen off the media room. The entire apartment is run by a state of the art Crestron system which controls all motorized window treatments, a full in-house stereo system complete with speakers in every room, and a touch screen audio-visual system which controls all tvs and iPod docks. There is no other apartment like this in New York City.

The residents at 25 Columbus Circle have access to all the amenities in the South tower “Club 51″ which are: the magnificent party room, living room with Central Park views, professional chef’s kitchen and dining room that can seat up to 40 people, massage room with shower, a children’s play room with kitchen and a gym with state-of-the-art equipment, a private screening room – home theater and a beautiful planted terrace overlooking the Hudson River.

In addition, the residents at 25 Columbus Circle have access as well to The Mandarin Oriental Hotel which has 15,000 gross square-feet including training rooms, weight rooms, a spa (treatment rooms) and a 15.5′ x 75′ two lane lap naturally lit swimming pool, a fitness center, an in-house garage with valet parking, chauffeur lounge, global communications center, wireless technology and private screening room.

If you’re willing to settle for being a few floors lower (the 68th rather than the PH), you could save $19,000,000 by picking up the 25 Columbus Circle unattainable apartment featured last month. Despite the substantial savings, you’d actually net an extra bedroom and bathroom.

This apartment is listed through Brown Harris Stevens. The listing doesn’t currently have any pictures, so for full-size images of the thumbnails below check out Curbed.
