Why Carmelo and La La Anthony Are Vacating This $12M NYC Penthouse

Mar 24 2015 - 3:01pm

New York Knicks basketball star Carmelo Anthony and his television personality wife, La La, are on their way out of this lavish 5th Avenue penthouse — but they're not going far; the couple apparently purchased an $11 million condo in New York's Chelsea neighborhood. In the wake of their move, Carmelo and La La's 4,000-square-foot, $29,000-per-month rental has been placed on the market for $12 million, making it the most expensive condo listing in Upper Manhattan. The steep price tag affords many luxuries, such as a private elevator that opens directly into the five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home, breathtaking Central Park views, and a 24-hour building concierge. Check out the following images to see what basketball's first couple is leaving behind when they officially vacate the property in August.

La La may have entertained famous friends, such as Kim Kardashian [3], in this spacious living room.

Carmelo probably unwound postgame in these luxurious bathrooms, equipped with radiant heated floors and Dolomiti marble.

The magnificent Central Park views and prime Fifth Avenue location were no doubt part of the reason Carmelo and La La rented the apartment two years ago.

The prewar building is full of charming architectural details and offers luxe amenities, such as a 2,600-square-foot fitness center, residents' lounge, children's playroom, and temperature-controlled storage unit.

The Anthony family probably served meals cooked in the state-of-the-art kitchen at this dining table.
