Gregg Lynn represented the seller in the marketing and sale of the Penthouse at 1080 Chestnut which sold for $14,000,000 – setting a new high watermark for the sale of an apartment on Russian Hill, per the San Francisco MLS. Gregg drew the attention of buyers through unique partnerships and exposure channels: the Penthouse hosted a collection of 30 significant works of art curated by Hackett Mill Gallery, including works by Manuel Neri and Robert Motherwell – which enabled buyers to envision the Penthouse walls as the venue for their prized works. Additionally, the Penthouse was the subject of the 2021 New Perspectives by Decorator’s Showcase which welcomed virtual tours from design enthusiasts around the world.
