How hard is it to buy an apartment in Trump Tower, the president-elect’s New York City residence and home base of his empire? Built in 1983 for $200 million, many of its apartments have spectacular views of the city and Central Park. It is not hard to get one, for people who can spend over $2 million and brave massive unruly crowds.

According to City Realty, there are 11 apartments for sale in Trump Tower, at price ranges between $2.1 million for a one-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom 1,052 sq. ft. on the 31st floor to one for $11 million. The $11 million buys a two-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom in 2,200 on the 58th floor.

The City Realty description of the building:

The Trump Tower at 721 Fifth Avenue is a glass tower located between 56th and 57th Streets.

Developed by Donald Trump, 721 Fifth Avenue sports a distinctive design that creates many corner windows with breathtaking views. Residential condominiums are located on the highest 38 floors of this 58-story tower and include nine duplex and triplex penthouses on the top nine floors. Many of the Trump Tower apartments have been renovated and feature marble bathrooms, Jacuzzi bathtubs, wood and stone floors, custom kitchen cabinets, state-of-the-art appliances, numerous walk-in closets and washer and dryers. The building’s spacious condos also offer panoramic views of the New York City skyline, Central Park and the rivers.

Amenities include a full-time doorman, valet, a fitness room, maid service and a common storage room.

Such retailers as Bergdorf Goodman and Tiffany’s are nearby, as are well-known restaurants. Central Park and the Plaza Hotel are two blocks away and the area is convenient to most public transportation.
