A townhouse where the ex-Beatle and Yoko Ono lived in the early '70s sold for $8.8 million, while a penthouse went for $4.5 million. Read more from our friends at DirtDotCom.
Few seemed to notice when an unassuming four-story townhouse on charming cobblestoned street in the bohemian heart New York’s West Village changed hands earlier this year at $8.8 million. Perhaps that almost no one noticed shouldn’t be so surprising given a nearly $9 million townhouse in lower Manhattan has become, well, commonplace.
After a stint at the posh St. Regis Hotel on the Upper East Side, and the release of his seminal solo album “Imagine,” the couple took up residence in a humble two-room walk-up apartment on Bank Street in the West Village. They rented the top-floor apartment, which had a winding staircase to a roof garden, from Lovin’ Spoonful drummer Joe Butler, who owned the building at the time.
They made a cozy home in the artist’s garret, where they were visited by a slew of high profile friends, including Jerry Rubin, Bobby Seale, and Alan Ginsburg. Alas, their romance with the West Village came to an end in 1973, when they were robbed by a former tenant of the apartment. Stolen items included a color TV set, which Lennon allegedly begged the robber to leave behind, and an address book that was later returned.
