Cabs may not go to Brooklyn, but I WILL!!!

Luckiest couch alive (next to Brad Pitt's couch, naturally)

This is what a New York loft should be, minus the central Manhattan locale.  An architectural gem, to say the least, reading the Wall Street Journal with a cup of Joe on the terrace will never be the same.  The reclaimed clocks as windows (sans hands) are beautiful foil for the outstanding view and overall spaciousness.  Natural light galore and the 360° view makes this 6,300 square-foot condo a one-of-a kind.  On sale for $25 million, which if sold, the New York Times says will handily best the $11 million purchase of a Gravesend home in 2006, making the penthouse the most expensive real estate buy in Brooklyn.
