A Hollywood Hideaway
This penthouse served as the couple's romantic city getaway for decades. Their youngest daughter, Clea Newman Soderlund, described it as “really kind of their romantic spot,” where they spent weeks at a time, attending theater, opera, and dinners with A-list friends like Tom Cruise and Cher, even Presidents Obama and Clinton.

Prewar Charm with Modern Amenities
The apartment boasts original prewar details such as 11-foot ceilings, herringbone wood floors, and a woodburning fireplace. While the primary bedroom was expanded, much of the apartment retains its 1980s charm, including the original kitchen, wallpaper, and tile. The two expansive terraces, totaling 2,300 square feet, were ideal for entertaining.

The penthouse holds countless memories for the family, from New Year’s Eve celebrations to intimate family dinners. This property is more than just real estate; it's a piece of Hollywood history.
