Jackie Kennedy Onassis‘ childhood home is on the market for a modest $44 million. Hedge fund manager David Ganek just listed the 2-story apartment at 740 Park Avenue where Jackie spent her youth from ages 2 through seven.
If you happen to have an extra $44 million laying around your bank vault, there’s a few things you should know before you call your broker. No mortgages are allowed in the world’s richest building. Come with cash or don’t come at all. And by “cash,” they mean assets of $100 million liquid. You must also be approved in a vetting process by board members who won’t even show up if they’ve never heard of you. And maintenance fees in this 19-story building of 31 units exceeds $50K a month.
Still interested? Read on.
From Curbed NY:
The rumors were true, and hedge fund guy David Ganek has listed his incredible duplex in 740 Park Avenue for $44 million. The apartment, most notably, was the childhood home of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis from ages two through seven (her grandfather was also the developer of the building in 1929). In recent years, it underwent a renovation, and although it’s hard to improve too much on a Park Avenue Rosario Candela-designed co-op, having Ganek’s incredible modern art collection — quite possibly worth more even than the apartment itself — line the walls certainly doesn’t hurt. The listing photos feature works by Warhol, John Baldessari, Richard Prince, Cindy Sherman, and Edward Ruscha. Ganek and his wife are, according to the Real Estalker, moving because they are the mystery purchasers of the first Puck Penthouse, which went for $28 million. Let’s hope he has enough wall space for all his art with those huge penthouse windows.
I’m mad they photo-shopped her in that picture.
House looks sweet
Wow….that is nuts
where Jackie spent her youth from ages 2 through seven.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
They need to stop. A “Youff-hood” is longer than 5 years.
I don’t like the decorators taste at all looks like a 1970’s throwback…. the layout of the apartment is amazing those views leave something to be desired – for that much money I don’t want to see neighbors I want to see oceans clouds and skyline….
why in deee heyall she look like she was never there???? neither her nor that chair has ever been in that house before
but that baffroom thoooooo
i know that bet not be the wicked witch from wizard of oz in that pic…i do not condone that
So basically no Negroes. Fools and they money.
@FaSerious who is the clown-faced Snooki in your gravi? Why she got THREE iBraws? Well SIX total? Why her errangs mismash? She got upper AND lower fake lashes?
She. looks. hideous <<< Jake from State Farm voice
That bytch must come with it’s own harem cause $44 million! FOR AN APARTMENT!!!!!!
Jesus himself musta lived his youth in that bytch. Ain’t now way.
Have yall ever seen someone make a life size cardboard cut out of a deceased person? And pass the cut out around, snapping pics at a memorial. Chit had me baffled as hell They took it to another level
I am still mad about that. STILL. I done made @Aroth PROMISE to beat the purity shyt outta Dub’s 19 and 9 if they do that to ME. 
Dont have me up there dead as chit looking like I am hosting a cookout! Put me in my Lady de Guadalupe Wal-Mart coffin and let me stay!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
No them hoes in NOLA who had they mama propped up like “Weekend at Bernie’s for Blacks” took it there.
Beautiful home
Nah, I’m good. I’m not feeling the view. Show me a place with a view of Central Park or a good view of the Hudson River and maybe I’ll reconsider. I’ma hold on to my 44 milli for now.

Sprite people shyt
I’ll pass, for 44 million?! Yeah, okay.
The bathroom is gorgeous but the decor is type dated for my liking. And for 44 million I damn sure don’t want to see other buildings in my view, I better see Central fukking park at every window and a bridge. Shiiiid.
Dont have me up there dead as chit looking like I am hosting a cookout! Put me in my Lady de Guadalupe Wal-Mart coffin and let me stay!

@Dub and the Cardboard Corpse,
They have had the deceased on a motorcycle, propped up in a boxing ring, standing posted up against the wall, and other types of interesting poses.
I wonder how would they do Hugh hefner should he manage to die. Maybe they would have a cardboard bunny straddled on toppa him.
@Man: I recorded the ESPY’s. Just got the link for the song about to listen to it now

right? but then there’s no exclusivity & no Jackie O essence permeating the place. that’s what the $ is for. so u can say ‘oh yes Jackie learned her ABC’s right over there’ to your other exclusive friends :rollseyes:
lawd i cant stand pretentiousness
I am not socializing with dead people period – if you got your dead kin propped up like an extra in a movie i’m out…..
off topic kinda: growing up my mom used to tell us that the Kennedy’s propped Rose Kennedy up in a window and tied a string to her hand to make it look like she was waving but that Rose Kennedy had died years ago… ha ha ha she did look dead …my mom is a mess – she also said the nuns bury their aborted fetuses behind the rectory….
@Fay Fay,
The baffroom does look rather oppulent, but it doesn’t look personal….you know…..inviting. Like they would have to rsvp you for you to use it. No ma’am, when nature calls, i gotta go!
Nice!!
Taken what in the Sam Hill is in that damn Gravie?!?!

@Opinion Hated,
In tandem with your story…..
So these people in one city saw what appeared to be a decoration hanging from a window. They would stop and look at it as it swayed in the breeze. Upon investigation however, it was discovered that the decoration was really a corpse, but because it happened around Halloween, people assumed it was a decoration.

sidenote: this buidling was built by Jackie O’s grandfather (lee). I’ve watched the documentary about 740 park that has some of the wealthiest (billionaires) people in the world living there. and yes, they included a nice black and white pick of jackie o standing next to her grandfather way back when – when it was mentioned he’s the one who built this place. talk about old money.
