An apartment directly next to the longtime home of the artist and peace activist — and former residence of the late John Lennon — has sold for $6.2 million, The Post has learned.
According to StreetEasy records, the four-bedroom, 2.5-bath co-op hit the market in June 2024 and sold for its asking price, marking a rare transaction inside the famously tight-knit Upper West Side building at 1 W. 72nd Street.
“The apartment is a work of art and received multiple offers,” Daniela Kunen of Douglas Elliman, who held the listing, told The Post.
The seventh-floor residence belonged to the late Paul H. Epstein, a prominent copyright attorney whose client list once included cultural luminaries Leonard Bernstein and Rodgers & Hammerstein — both towering figures in 20th-century American music. The late Bernstein was also a onetime Dakota resident.
Epstein purchased the unit in 2012 with his husband, Garry Parton, and lived there until his death in 2022 at age 81.
