If 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.
But the late Godfather of Soul also kept an apartment on the Upper East Side, and it’s just come on the market. 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
