Consider it an empty canvas — albeit a very expensive, enormous canvas.This empty 62,000-square-foot apartment just hit the market in Manhattan for $130 million and has replaced a $125 million penthouse as the most expensive listing in New York. The Residence at River House is also the new No. 2 on the most expensive homes list, trailing just behind the $140 million estate in Greenwich, CT.The reason an empty condo is so expensive? The opportunity to create “what will truly be one of the grandest urban residences in the world,” according to the listing.River House was constructed in 1931 by American architect William Bottomley, and when it opened was one of the premier addresses in the city. Overlooking the East River, the $130 million home the largest in the Big Apple sprawls across 5 levels and features 20-foot ceilings, enormous view-filled windows and “light-filled spaces.”
