Bruce Willis has sold the duplex he owned across from Central Park for US$17.75 million. The apartment measures about 550 square metres and faces directly onto the park. Willis had bought the property just three years before letting it go. The sale moved at remarkable speed, with a buyer found in only eight days. Deals at that price point usually take far longer to close, which makes the quick turnaround stand out. The home sat along one of the most sought-after stretches of Manhattan real estate. With the transaction done, Willis's short run as its owner has come to an end.
