Keith Olbermann's $4.2M Apartment

COUNTDOWN PALACE 200 East 69th Street, 40th Floor, NYC

Apparently Keith Olbermann made out well on his recent contract negotiations. The MSNBC host of Countdown with Keith Olbermann has purchased a five-room, 40th floor apartment for a whopping $4.2 million, the New York Observer reports today.

Sure, the place has spectacular views through its floor to ceiling windows, but it also claims a 31-foot living room, three balconies, and enough closet space for dozens of slightly loose TV-friendly suits. We never figured Olbermann for a resident of Trump Palace, though, stacked as it is with typically Trumpy touches like old-fashioned parquet floors, windowless kitchens, marble bathrooms with tacky gold-plated fixtures, and obscenely glitzy brass and glass lobbies. Maybe he's redecorating as we speak.
