 <title>Price Drop at 30 Crosby</title>
 <link>http://www.observer.com/node/34865</link>
 <description><![CDATA[<!--paging_filter--><div class="photoCaption" /><img alt="crosby.jpg" src="http://therealestate.observer.com/crosby.jpg" width="250" height="171" /><br />Just another breakfast nook.</div /> Even with <a href="http://therealestate.observer.com/2006/05/30-crosby-courtney-love-era-ends.html">Courtney Love out of the building</a>, a buyer has not yet scooped up theater chairman Laurence Isaacson's maisonette at 30 Crosby Street. Now, the price has just been reduced from $6.45 million to <a href="http://www.elliman.com/Listing.aspx?ListingID=737210&SearchType=Broker_Current&BID=DEG">$5.995 million</a>. 

<p>Over the years, Mr. Isaacson has tried to keep up with the Soho building's high-profile residents, as he told <em>The Observer</em> last March.</p>

<blockquote>"I am quite a flamboyant creature," said Mr. Isaacson. "When you have people like Lenny Kravitz in the building--and we've just lost Courtney Love--you have to hold your own."
</blockquote>Since coming on the market earlier this year, celebrities like Kate Hudson and Billy Joel taken a walk through this lavish apartment, which was designed by Benjamin Noriega Ortiz. (He also did Lenny's place upstairs). 

<p>Considering that the Piano Man is now looking at a <a href="http://therealestate.observer.com/2006/06/tuesday-the-piano-man-ruins-brooklyn.html">$12.9 million townhouse</a> in Brooklyn Heights, he probably won't be at tomorrow's open house.</p>
