The Place: A two-bedroom modernist penthouse in the Yorkville building that houses The Yorkville Club and Whole Foods.

Bragging Rights: The building, with its distinctive Venn diagram-shaped windows, is the work of star architect Jack Diamond, a.k.a. the man behind the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts.
