Celebrity Cribs On The New York Market! Check Out Where John Mayer and Barack Obama Lived

An article curated by New York magazine features current available spaces in the city that were once homes to Barack Obama, John Mayer, Ada Louise Huxtable and Charles Webster Hawthorne, to name a few.

It's quite interesting to see where these individuals lived, whether a small or large space, and to see what the real estate was years ago in comparison to living in New York City today. From studios to lofts, to even "The Real World" townhouse, these properties cost a pretty penny.

President Obama lived in a two bedroom rental apartment while attending Columbia University in 1981 that cost $360 per month between him and his roommate, Phil Boener. Apparently it was an unpleasant living situation, lacking in a properly working heater and doorbell, but now is on the market for $2,495 a month with exposed brick and located on 142 W 109 St.

A 5th floor duplex on 205 E 16 Street with two bedrooms and 2.5 baths was John Mayer's place of residency in 2005. This full service building was a place to sleep and play music with views of the Empire State Building, but Mayer moved out of the apartment two years later. This 2,026 square foot property is on the market for $2.65 million today!

The West Village Real World House at 632 Hudson Street was built in 1847, and in 2001 housed seven individuals who joined in the making of season 10 of "The Real World". The 8,000 square foot property is available as a two family residence with unique features such as a grand staircase taken from an old hotel, a walk-in fireplace (of course, when there is no fire burning), and three stories, providing the right buyers with options. The asking price for this location is a whopping $22 million and is currently used as a photoshoot location for editorial projects, weddings and exclusive events, with a contract until 2016.

Pulitzer Prize-winning architecture critic Ada Louise Huxtable's apartment is for sale for $2 million, located at 969 Park Avenue. The property consists of two bedrooms, two baths, with a health club and rooftop terrace built by architect Emory Roth. This pre-war co-op apartment was home to Huxtable for nearly 50 years and was said to be a structure she loved dearly.

Properties once lived in by Charles Mingus, Tommy Tune, Isamu Noguchi, Hope Hampton and Charles Webster Hawthorne, are on the market also. To see the full article and interior images, visit nymag.com.
