Real Estate Mogul Sets Sights on Greenwich Village with $19M Co-Op Acquisition

Former Altice USA CEO Dexter Goei buys new Downtown Manhattan home after selling record-breaking townhouse.

exter Goei, former CEO of Altice USA, has closed on a $19 million penthouse in Greenwich Village. This comes after he set the record for Downtown Manhattan's most expensive townhouse sale earlier this year with his double-wide home at 138-40 West 11th Street, which sold for $72.5 million. Goei had purchased the property eight years prior for $31 million.

    The new penthouse is a 2,800-square-foot duplex in the 14-story co-op building at 39 Fifth Avenue. It was previously owned by interior designers Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent, who sold it in 2016 for $9.8 million before trading hands again in an off-market deal in 2021 for $8.9 million.

    The penthouse features a wraparound terrace and three wood-burning fireplaces. Its seller is a limited liability company tied to Keith Bloomfield, founder of the Forbes Family Trust. The LLC also owns another unit in the building, which it purchased around the same time as the penthouse.
