NYC home used as Green Goblin’s lair in ‘Spider-Man’ seeks $1.95M
This Manhattan triplex is looking for a new owner — be they hero or villain.
A Murray Hill penthouse featured in director Sam Raimi’s early 2000s “Spider-Man” trilogy has hit the market with a $1.95 million price tag, according to a StreetEasy listing update.
The unit played the part of Spider-Man’s nemesis the Green Goblin’s lair in all three films — “Spider-Man,” “Spider-Man 2” and “Spider-Man 3,” which were released in 2002, 2004 and 2007 respectively, starring Willem Dafoe as the supervillain and Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man.
It last sold in 2022 for $1.75 million, slightly less than the $1.99 million ask it listed for back in 2021, as The Post reported at the time.
Located atop 5 Tudor City Place, also known as the Windsor Tower, penthouse five features a nearly 300-square-foot private roof terrace, a great room with 18-foot ceilings and 15-foot casement windows, one bedroom and 1.5 bathrooms.
Through the front door is a modest foyer and a powder room with murals of ancient ruins. Then there’s the dramatic great room, which is open to the floor above and is centered by an oversized, 1920s era wood-burning fireplace “remodeled to match the original mantel mirror and original molds,” according to the listing, which is held by Compass agents Clayton Orrigo, Eva Alt and Stephen Ferrara.
A winding staircase with hand-painted cast-iron rails leads upstairs to a renovated kitchen equipped with a gas range and an adjacent dining area, both of which look down to the great room below.
The second floor also has the sole bedroom, which has two custom walk-in closets, two additional linen closets and an ensuite bathroom with marble galore.
The third floor contains the roof terrace as well as some storage space.
Throughout, there are sweeping views of the Midtown skyline and herringbone wood floors.
The historic, 95-year-old building has a full-time doorman, a 2,000-square-foot fitness center, a live-in residence manager and a number of its own movie cameos. Those include “The Bourne Ultimatum” — in which Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) leaps from the roof into the East River, “Scarface,” which was shot just beyond the lobby, and “The Godfather: Part III,” in which a breakfast scene takes place on the terrace of an adjacent penthouse.
