Not that I would *EVER* want to live there but WTF?!?! I want to ride to the ridge
Where the west commences
And gaze at the moon
Till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hovels
And I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in... NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - The average price of a Manhattan apartment has topped $1 million for the first time, according to a new survey.
