The history
The agent says past tenants include professional athletes and Jordanian royalty. The property was redecorated in 2013, supposedly at the behest of a Raptors player who was living here with his wife. The building, which opened in 2012, is still technically a Trump property, but won’t be for much longer. Donald Trump never had any known ownership stake, just a licensing deal and management contract—which, as a result of some behind-the-scenes legal wrangling, are about to be terminated. The building is expected to rebrand shortly.
Major perks
The elevator opens into a private foyer, which gives residents a sense of privacy and exclusivity. Tenants also have access to a chauffeured house car, an indoor infinity pool and a concierge.
Possible deal breaker
The unit is on the 50th floor. While some may enjoy the sky-high views, others may dislike the long elevator ride and vertiginous height:
