The Woolworth Mansion on East 80th Street for $90 million.
This 19,950-square-foot mansion was built in the late 1890s for the retail magnate, Frank Woolworth. It's definitely how the other half lived (even though that other half is now reduced to a mere one percent.) The neo-French Renaissance mansion has a limestone facade and is super-sized everything -- massive fireplaces, formal rooms, a dining room that can seat more than 50. We assume that if you have $90 million to spend on a house, you probably know that many people to invite to dinner.
