Nouriel Roubini, the famous self-promoter and prognosticator of the great recession, has put his "Pussy Galore" TriBeCa apartment up for rental. Does the monthly fee come with the plastic vulvas?
As Gawker has found, Dr. Doom's 1,300 square-foot apartment is quite the catch and has been notorious for the female genitalia (sculpted by Analia Segal) protruding from the walls.
The fact that Roubini is seeking a renter is probably as a good a barometer of the real estate market as any; he's biding his time until the market softens and he can score a greater sale price for the pad.
Homeboy bought the place for $860,000 in 2002 and is looking for someone to cough up $7,600 a month for it. Check out the pics below, and decide for yourself...
