As 2013 draws to a close, the nine-figure apartment listings that appeared over the course of the year are dropping like flies. Last week, Martin Zweig's widow reduced the ask on her Pierre penthouse by $30 million, bringing it down to $95 million, and today news of another major PriceChop surfaces: hedge funder Steven A. Cohen has brought the price of his One Beacon Court penthouse down to $98 million, from a starting point of $115 million. Cohen recently pleaded guilty to insider trading and agreed to pay a penalty of $1.2 billion, so it's possible that he's more motivated to sell. But, considering that he was worth somewhere around $9 billion before the fine, it's also possible that he doesn't really care that much. Either way, this is still a crazy expensive apartment.
