See The Gramercy Park 'Castle' Nobody Wants To Buy
WOW House: This Gramercy Park home looks more like a palace than an apartment, but its stayed on the market for three years.

GRAMERCY, NY — A castle-inspired apartment in Gramercy has been on the market for three years and cut its asking price nearly in half, but no potential royalty have chosen to call the apartment home.

This medieval-like home is located on Gramercy Park North, just outside the city's most exclusive private park. The home initially hit the market in 2014 asking for $7 million, according to Curbed New York. Now, three years later, that price has been slashed to $3.75 million.
