Listing of the Day
Location: San Francisco
Price: $8.2 million
Seventeen condos at a new development called the Harrison are being billed as penthouses, including this one numbered 45B. This unit occupies half of the 45th floor—of the Harrison’s 49 total floors—and has two neighboring quarter-floor units also being described as penthouses.
"Similar to many of NYC's most significant high-rises, the Harrison identified its uppermost six floors, with sweeping sky-high views, as its penthouse collection," listing agent Lynn Brown said. "These are the creme-de-la-creme of the building."
Semantics aside, the view is the apartment’s greatest selling point.

"You can pay for the all the upgrades in the world, but this view is priceless. No other building can offer this unique vantage point because this residence sits directly in line with the Bay Bridge," Ms. Brown said.
From 45B, one can enjoy views of the East Bay and Marina.
"Seeing the tranquil nature of the world-renowned San Francisco Bay juxtaposed with the feverish pace and activity of the city from 500 feet up is quite spectacular," Ms. Brown said.
Stats
The apartment has three bedrooms, three full bathrooms and one half bathroom spread across 3,214 square feet. Two balconies have a total of 104 square feet.
