Johnson buys New York apartment:

Five-time NASCAR champion #48-Jimmie Johnson has bought a $14.25 million pad at the West Villages Superior Ink. Johnson paid the full asking price for the 3,234-square-foot, five-bedroom apartment at 400 West 12th Street. The racer had earlier sold a sixth-floor, three-bedroom unit in the Robert A.M. Stern-designed building that was listed with Halstead Propertys Lisa Rose for $10.5 million, according to the New York Post. Halsteads Brian Lewis represented Johnson in that deal, a spokesperson for the brokerage told The Real Deal. Sales transactions at Superior Ink increased by nearly $1,000 a square foot compared to last year, as The Real Deal reported.( The Real Deal )
