All About John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy's "Huge" Tribeca Loft

"Following their legendary meeting at a Calvin Klein showroom in New York City, John and Carolyn began dating seriously in 1994. It was then that the son of the president decided to put down more permanent roots in Tribeca with the purchase of the penthouse at 20 North Moore Street. Prior to that, John had been a tenant at an apartment on 71 Hudson Street, also in Tribeca, that was owned at the time by film producer Michael Ulick."

"John reportedly asked the press for "privacy or room" so that Carolyn could adjust to the "big change" of becoming a member of America's Camelot. During their short tenure in Tribeca, the couple were often photographed outside of their apartment building as well as elsewhere in the neighborhood, as the paparazzi so hounded the newlyweds-who tied the knot in 1996."

"John's N. Moore penthouse cost $700,000 in 1994, which, adjusted for inflation, equates to roughly $1.5 million. That said, the average price for a two-bedroom in Tribeca today is just over $3 million."

John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy lived in a two-bedroom penthouse loft located at 20 North Moore Street in Tribeca from 1994 to 1999. JFK Jr. purchased the apartment for $700,000 shortly after meeting Carolyn at a Calvin Klein showroom in New York City. The couple married in 1996 and faced intense paparazzi attention throughout their residence in the neighborhood. JFK Jr. requested privacy for Carolyn to adjust to her new life as a member of America's prominent political family. The couple tragically died in a plane crash off Martha's Vineyard in 1999, along with Carolyn's sister Lauren. Their Tribeca apartment has recently gained renewed interest following the release of Ryan Murphy's biographical drama Love Story, which recreates the residence with some alterations.
