Nicolas Cage's Olympic Tower condo

Last November, Nicolas Cage put his 3,550-square-foot, 48th-floor, five-bedroom, two-unit apartment in Olympic Tower at 641 Fifth Ave Midtown East on the market for exactly one day: The $9.75 million condo was pulled once a reporter called the actor's broker to ask about it.
Eight months later, his apartment was back on at the same price. But was sold this November for $7.5 million.
The home is the combination of two 48th-floor condos with a total 3,550 square feet of space designed by LM Pagano, who decorated boats for Cage and his pal Johnny Depp. The buyer is a New York-based limited liability company.
The three-bedroom, 3½-bath residence is classy. The master bathroom, which has a tub and steam shower, is caked in lights and what seems to be some kind of bright black marble; the 32-foot-long living/dining room has two Eames Lounge Chairs on a very shaggy white carpet; and there's a long glass table topped with what seem to be glass figurines of two skyscrapers and the Statue of Liberty.The Olympic Tower, a 51-story building in Manhattan near St. Patrick’s Cathedral, has a history of prestige and elegance. Constructed in 1975, the building contains 225 condominium apartments and more than 250,000 square feet of office space and retail space. The NBA offices are located in the tower between the 14th and 19th floors.
