Buyer on high at Schrager’s 160 Leroy St.

P ROVING there’s

still money pouring into Manhattan, the south penthouse unit at Ian Schrager’s 160 Leroy St. has been put into contract.

The asking price was $31.5 million and what he got was “very close,” Schrager said.

The domestic buyer was represented by Sotheby’s, while a Douglas Elliman team that includes Kirk Rundhaug and Madeline Hult Elghanayan is representing Schrager.

“In the upper end of the market, peo- ple still want to live here. It’s erratic and softer, but sporadically you get these bursts of activity,” Schrager said of apartment tours and contract signings.

The expansive 4,849square-foot unit includes a portion of the southern roof of the gently curving new project designed by Herzog & de Meuron and now getting its finishing touches along the West Side Highway.

The building’s 57 unit owners will likely start move-ins at the end of the year into 2018, Schrager said.

The four-bedroom, 4½-bath south penthouse also has a huge media room, a fireplace, 251 feet of glass and, like all units in the building, has two kitchens — a “chef ’s kitchen” for preparations and a “social kitchen” for the open floor entertaining that matches today’s lifestyle. (Of course, one could be kept Kosher, too.)

But this south penthouse also has a private elevator to the 2,616-square-foot roof deck with a hot tub and “summer kitchen” for barbecues by the Hudson River. “It has sweeping 350-degree views,” Schrager added.

At 7,750 square feet, a larger north penthouse with five bedrooms and four fireplaces is also more expensive

— Douglas Elliman shows pricing of $48.5 million, but its roof deck also has its own 27foot long pool. Tell them I sent you.

The Starbucks-owned Italian baker Princi is coming to Red Hook.

The food haunt has signed a lease for 18,000 square feet at 160 Van Brunt St., where it will have open kitchens for a bakery and commissary that may eventually open to the public.

Last year, Starbucks invested in the Milan-based Princi, founded by Chef

Rocco Princi, with plans to include its artisan all breads and pizza at select Reserve Roastery locations.

So far, its Reserve Roastery is open in Seattle. One is coming to New York’s 61 Ninth Ave., where Aetna will have office space, next year; and to Chicago in 2019.

The space on the ground floor in Red Hook comprises two hanger-like expanses with wide windows and skyline views, sources said, David Firestein of SCG Retail represents Starbucks and could not be reached. Building owner Asher Abehsera’s LIVWRK, in partnership with David Brecher’s FirstMarket Capital, has asking rents of $44 per square foot and was also unreachable.

Although LIVWRK is invested with Jared Kushner on various redevelopments, Kushner is not a partner on this project.

Princi will join Tesla, which has over 40,000 square feet for a showroom, service area and offices. NYU Langone has also just signed for a third-floor suite.

The red brick building by the waterfront bounded by Imlay, Summit and Van Brunt streets is five combined structures that comprise the former Golten Marine ship repair facility.

As the most northern building in Red Hook by Hamilton Avenue., it is just a block from the residential filled Carroll Gardens, where I-478 is underground, making strolling with strollers stress-free.

Red Hook is also becoming a food-maker mecca with bakers, chocolatiers, breweries and others taking advantage of the warehouses and harbor breezes.
