Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky Star in Spike Lee’s "Highest 2 Lowest" Featuring $15 Million Penthouse
In Spike Lee’s upcoming thriller, "Highest 2 Lowest," stars Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky navigate both elevated views and the streets of Brooklyn, thanks to a striking real estate feature appearing in the film. The penthouse showcased in the trailer is not merely a set; it is the luxurious top unit of Olympia Dumbo, a distinctive sail-shaped structure overlooking the East River, currently listed for $15 million.
Perched on the 33rd floor, Penthouse A at 30 Front St. boasts a spacious layout of 4,266 square feet, with soaring ceiling heights that reach 13 feet and an impressive private terrace measuring nearly 500 square feet.
The film’s production team enhanced the interior décor, yet the breathtaking vistas of both the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges are entirely genuine, avoiding any use of green screens.
This lavish four-bedroom, 3½-bath residence provides direct access from a private elevator to a welcoming foyer that leads into expansive living and dining areas, framed by stunning skyline views.
The property features an array of upscale amenities, including a wet bar created with Calacatta Vagli Oro marble, a sophisticated kitchen designed by Workstead, fitted with top-tier Gaggenau appliances, and a primary suite featuring dual walk-in closets along with a luxurious bath that includes twin showers, two water closets, and a freestanding tub.
Residents of Olympia Dumbo can enjoy over 38,000 square feet of shared facilities spread across three levels, encompassing both indoor and outdoor pools, a sauna, steam room, a juice bar, and fitness options like spin and boxing studios. Additionally, the building features a bowling alley, children’s play areas, and a rooftop tennis court, thought to be the highest in New York City, perfect for the US Open season. Private parking facilities are also available.
John B Gomes from Douglas Elliman manages the listing for Penthouse A. Notably, the adjacent Penthouse B also played a role in the movie and was briefly on the market last June for $17.5 million before being delisted.
The storyline of "Highest 2 Lowest" revolves around Washington’s character, a music mogul entangled in a ransom scheme. The film has garnered positive reviews, currently holding a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
