Alice buys in Manhattan

Actress Linda Lavin paid $949,000 for a one-bedroom in Manhattan’s Central Park South. Now we best remember Ms. Lavin as “Alice” in the hit TV show of the same name. Oh, how we remember laughing at Alice, Mel, Vera, and Flo. And getting in trouble for telling people to “Kiss my grits!” But that’s a story for another time.

The listing notes the co-op has 1 bedroom, 1.5 baths, and 3.5 rooms total in approximately 1,050-square-feet. The renovated kitchen has marble counter tops, white cabinets and ceramic tile floors. Incredibly, this small space has 6 closets, 3 of which are walk-ins.

Lavin’s new pad is close to the Park, Carnegie Hall, and Lincoln Center. And since there’s a garage, this is a place where one could actually own a car. The building has a doorman, concierge, elevator men (really?) and valet service. Of course, she’ll pay just over a grand a month for the maintenance fees.
