Rare Greenwich Village Home With World's Tallest Private Rock-Climbing Wall Lists for $20 Million
Briefly

"[The owner] is a rock climber, and I guess his thought was, 'What do I do with this space?' and he said, 'I like to rock climb, and I could build my own,'" explains Diane Wildowsky, with Sotheby's International Realty - Downtown Manhattan. This quote highlights the creative decision behind incorporating the climbing wall into the townhouse's design.
"Different rock-climbing publications have said that as far as they know, it's the tallest privately owned rock-climbing wall in the world. There are bigger ones, but they're in commercial buildings—not in a private home." This emphasizes the uniqueness and significance of the climbing wall compared to other climbing facilities.
"I love the house because it strikes such a different note. There is nothing like it anywhere in the city, nothing. It's really quite original." This quote underscores the distinctive and unparalleled architectural vision of the home's design.
"Now that the vines are growing, the development contrasts the clean lines of the building with the organic feel of nature, showcasing an innovative blend of architecture and greenery." This statement reflects on the harmonious integration of natural elements into the modern design.
