Perched atop The Whitney, one of the most sought-after buildings in downtown West Palm Beach, Florida, Penthouse #801 combines stunning views with an artistic legacy. Most notably, the three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom residence sports an impressive 1,000-square-foot rooftop terrace that has been an inspiration for renowned artists like Cuban-born artist Kadir López. In addition, the terrace served as the launching pad for New York-based artist Rafael Domenech’s U.S. career, and famed photographer Christophe von Hohenberg, a friend of the current owner Maribel Alvarez, makes an annual pilgrimage to take in the vistas from the terrace. Sylvester Stallone, now a resident of Palm Beach, and collector Jane Holzer have also been guests of the apartment.
Alvarez, a well-known Palm Beach fixture and PR maven, recently launched her own caviar concierge company, Altima Caviar. Now, Alvarez is looking to downsize as her business expands to Europe and has put her art-filled penthouse on the market for a speck under $1.5 million.
A highlight of the condo is its 1,000-square-foot terrace.
