It was just a few years ago that gracie abrams was shooting sad-girl music videos from a rumpled, messy bedroom in los angeles. Now, She’s Buying a Penthouse. Specific, a three-beedroom at the top of a 1927 trophy co-op, as The Real Deal first reportedA Greenwich Village Spread with Three Terraces, A Formal Dining Room, and a Kitchen that LOOKS LIKE IT DESIGNED PRIGHT THE 25-YEAR-Old was Born.

One Fifth Avenue, at the corner of East 8th Street, Once Served As A Hotel for Wealthy Artists, nor My Colleague Matthew Sedacca Previously Reported. If that isn’t an oxymoron, it’s an apt description for abrams, the offspring of jj abrams, director of the Star Wars Reboot and Other Movies Set on Distance Worlds (Armageddon, Lost). Gracie abrams herself is no longer just releasing music on Instagram; AFTER OPENING FOR HER FRIEND TAILOR SWIFT ON THE ERAS TOUR, SOLD OUT STADIUMS LAST YEAR On Her Headling Tour, Doing so well that fans went apoplectic over A $ 700 Seat Advertised for Her Madison Square Garden Appearans.

Still, iT’s Kind of weird that she’d want to live here. There’s a bright, cheery unfussiness to her style that might be a littlef in a building with a dark, columned, Old-School lobby, or where Other Other Include Aging “Die-Hard Republicans.” But there’s a bohemian lineage here that tracks: keith richards and patti smith bot lived here, with Smith Shooting the cover for Horses in the building.
Other Hollywood Types have Also made a go of the Building. Directors Brian de Palma, Ira Sachs, and Tim Burton have lived here. SO HAVE Helena Bonham Carter (Burton’s Talent Ex-Wiffe, of Course) and Jessica Lange, Who Did What a Lot of 21st-Century Doers Did and Combined Smaller Former Rooms Into “Four-BEDROM FRANCENAPartments with Bamboo Flooring and Cabinetry, Gold-Trimmed Bathrooms, Gold-Trimmed Bath and unobstructed views of the Freedom Tower, ”As Sedacca Wrote.
Abrams Paid $ 5.5 Million for 18GK, Which Must Have Once Been A Combination of Two Hotel Suites (G and K). And she may have far-fetched plans to make it Bigger. In november, she bought a smaller $ 1.95 million unit on a Lower Floor (16D) from the abstract swiss artist John Sennhauser. But it isn’t clear how those cool be combined, Since there’s a floor in the way. Maybe the plan for 16D is to make it a guest room, or tute just a spot where abrams can stay as she work on her penthouse. The Unit Will “Likely Need a Renovation,” As The Seller’s Brokers told The Real Deal. Abrams Bought from an Estate, and the unit has a pre-1999 Kitchen and two bathrooms that were apparently not sharp enough to the tissue in the listing. A virtual listing shows the hardwoods staged with a dinner stain in some shots (Maybe they’re damaged?). And the terraces, with Big Pinkish Concrete Tiles, Look a Little, Well, Lame.
Last Summer, a glamor profiles reported that abrams was “Itching to Move to New York Permanantly.” She has Friends here, Including Swift, and of Course Paul Mescal, Who’s Currently Having a Brando Turn at Bam in A Streetcar Named Desire.
