The late Brooke Astor's famous (notorious as of late ) NYC apartment has been put on the market with a huge asking price of $46 million. Decorated by Sister Parrish with later updates by her partner Albert Hadley ( such as the famous library), this showcased the lived-in english country look Sister was known for. Here are a few pictures I was able to find of her apartment and of the library in particular.

the famous lacquered library by Albert Hadleylower level sitting room - i love that leather kneeling bench!
It really looks like a cozy country home, other than the fabulous views over NY from those numerous terraces! The apartment is palatial at the top 2 stories of a snooty coop on Park Avenue -it combined Mr. Astor's apartment with Brooke's mother's apartment below following her death. Must be nice............
