Anyone who's dreamed of having the High Line as your back yard (and the Chelsea Market as your local grocery store) can drink in this spacious, decked-out rental in the neighborhood, asking an admittedly eye-popping $29,500 a month.
Plenty of New Yorkers would bend over backwards for the 15 minutes of fame that a link to Andy Warhol confers. But apparently, not everyone feels the same way.

Q: I'm selling my condo, and the board gave me a release form for buyers saying they can be rejected for any reason. I thought only co-ops could reject buyers in this way? And there's no clause about this in our building's by-laws. Is this legal?
A: While your condo board may have what's known as the "right of first refusal" on your sale, it would have to be specifically laid out in the building by-laws to be legal, say our experts.
