The fact that a New York penthouse is on the market for $169 million is a little crazy but otherwise unremarkable -- we know how insane the market's become -- except for the fact that this one's in a particular building that's been nothing but troubled since it opened, and if you're thinking about that super-tall, super-skinny one where the elevators are screwed up and the whole building creaks in high winds and there's been flooding at various levels, yup, that's the one. Now, someone has to PAY that price for it to be really that bizarre, but someone might. Are incredible views from midtown Manhattan worth the problems? Do people really just ignore the troubles?
