However, the list of famous people who lived there and their stories, were mesmerizing. The book is very long, too long. I think some of the lead up information in the first section could have been shortened. I almost gave up on it early on. The stories were the best part but you have to wait for it. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Gossip with a Shot of Info *by I***C on Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2014* I have to admit glitzy, glossy novels chronicling the lives of the uber-well of have a certain place in my heart. And it was these tenets in mind that I chose to purchase "Fortune". I had read a bit of Gross's previous book about Beverly Park in Los Angeles so I guess I should've been aware of the abundance of facts and history tid-bits which though I enjoy reading about the building and sure, even the developers and fine, also the investors. I don't really want to read about every Tom, Jack and Sally buyer. I guess it might be in some peoples time to enjoy reading how a no-name rich guy from Serbia got his money - but not I. Those parts were the annoying parts - but everything else was great! I enjoyed reading about the developmental process - the butting of heads of the titans and the process of selling, building and reselling these homes. Great read - if you skip the boring parts. In my opinion the only "background pages" you should read are the ones talking about the Zeckendorfs, Stern and investors (Eyal Ofer of Global Holdings) (Goldman Sachs) in the building. You'll see what I mean! Also, I loved the story about that holdout tenant. I'm not sure it's worth $12.99 but if it's every <$8 I'd say without a doubt buy it! At the current price - make sure you really like 15CPW! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great book of the 1% of the 1% *by B***D on Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2014* A real inside look of not on the physical aspects of 15 Central Park West such as descriptions of the lobby, pool, and the architectural details such as what building materials were used, but also layouts of some apartments, information about the in house restaurant which gives readers a real "inside"Equally fascinating are the many machinations that some prominent people and some not so prominent people indulged in getting apartments. Also information the building staff, their real feelings about famous and some not so famous residents.The larger social issues are also covered since 15 CPW is a condominium no Board approval is required and the often acrimonious process of getting into the upper upper end of the NYC is just not there. As some body once said the three most important qualities of a successful restaurant are:location, location, location, 15 CPW are money, money, money.It also validates what I believe JP Morgan's response as to how much it costs for his yacht "if you have to ask. You can't afford it. Item at one time SandyWeil allegedly give 90,000 in tips one year and to the consternation of at least some staff were highly chagrined whe. He allegedly cut it by half. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/221618-house-of-outrageous-fortune-fifteen-central-park-west-the-worlds](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/221618-house-of-outrageous-fortune-fifteen-central-park-west-the-worlds) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
