Vestiges of the Boom? Koons to Build Upper East Side Palace

Picture 1

Fancy this! Jeff Koons wants to live larger than most hedge fund moguls and gazillionaires.

His architect filed plans to gut and combine a pair Upper East Side townhouses, according to real estate website Curbed, which would result in a sprawling 21,500 square foot single family home.

Here’s the deal: Koons wants to  join 11 East 67th Street, which the artist acquired last years for $12 million, with 13 East 67th Street, which he bought last year for $20 million.

The plans include a pool, exercise room and four maids’ rooms, according to Curbed. See plans here. The renovation application was rejected, but Curbed suspects some tweaking will occur and the documents will be refiled.
