No? Okay, well, if you want to spoil our fun and buy Brooke Astor's apartment for yourself, be our guest. The Daily News today points us to the Corcoran listing for the sprawling Park Avenue palace, which tells us everything we need to know about how we would be living if this were a perfect world. It features fourteen rooms, spectacular views up and down park, five fireplaces, six terraces, six bathrooms, and the final confirmation that if you live there you are scientifically superior to everybody else around you. How do you fit all of that maddening luxury into one apartment? After the jump, the dizzying floor plan, which includes New York apartment terms we've only heard of in myths and legends, like "private landing," "vault," and "pantry."
