James Brown’s Manhattan Apartment Up for Sale

Brown_jamesIf you want to “Feel Good, I know that you could” by buying James Brown’s former Manhattan apartment. He lived in this property during the 70’s and 80’s. The Godfather of Soul’s apartment is not a very lavish place as one would expect from the pop icon, but it a spacious 2 story property in the heart of the Upper East Side.

The surprisingly modest three-bedroom—spacious and sunny, to be sure, but on Third Avenue at 67th Street—carries a price under a million and a half dollars. Brown is said to have lived here from the late seventies through the early eighties, during which time his career started to recover from disco- induced malaise. (“Living in America” hit in 1986.) We checked the closets, and regrettably there are no gold-fringed suits included in the sale. – New York Magazine
