Rosie Closes On Times Square Condo For $1.97 M.

Last summer, the ex-talk show host signed a $1.97 million contract for a two-bedroom pied-a-terre at the new steel-and-tinted glass condo called Platinum, on West 46th Street. But at a party she threw in the building's sales center last month--a fundraiser for her charity Rosie's Broadway Kids--Ms. O'Donnell was overheard saying that she had liked the condominium's model so much she wanted to buy it from the developer. And the developer, called SJP Residential Properties, agreed to sell it.
