1) Sex-crimes hottie Mariska Hargitay just pricechopped her Tribeca penthouse down to $5.95 million because it overlooks the run-up to the Holland Tunnel instead of the river. BUT, you get a private underground garage. Sez the Law & Order: SVU star: "It’s like Batman. You pull in, and there’s only room for one car!’ That's kinda awesome. [Max Abelson/Manhattan Transfers]
2) Remember when Howard Stern's Hamptons summer rental got sold out from under him? Rest assured, the satellite shock jock will not be without a beach house come Memorial Day. He's signed a lease on a six-bedroom beachfront Meadow Lane property, which was for sale for $25 million. [Braden Keil/Gimme Shelter]
3) Actor Treat Williams has gone to contract on that Upper West Side co-op he's owned for 30 years. And for all you haters of creepy staging, the 2,700-square-foot apartment is getting $1 million more than the asking price of $4.75 million. [Braden Keil/Gimme Shelter]
4) Hopefully you've been following downtown treasure David Cross' involvement in the sad saga of 179 Ludlow Street on the Lower East Side. If you haven't, then shame on you. [Curbed]
