One57 Penthouse Sold in New York's Biggest Foreclosure Auction

A penthouse at the ultra-luxury One57 tower -- the most expensive home ever seized in New York City -- has found a new owner.

Unit 79 at the Billionaires’ Row skyscraper sold for $36 million at a foreclosure auction. The buyer, one of five bidders aside from the bank, wouldn’t answer questions, and his name wasn’t immediately available. Shell companies linked to Kolawole Akanni Aluko, a Nigerian businessman accused by the U.S. of receiving contracts with his country’s state-owned oil company after bribing a government official, bought the apartment for $50.9 million in 2014.
