David Cone, the former Yankee and Mets player, recently checked out some full-floor apartments at The Charles, at 1355 First Ave., where sales are handled by Town Residential.
Cone — who has five World Series rings and is now a YES Network TV personality — also played for the Boston Red Sox and spent the last of his stellar 17-year Major League Baseball career as a pitcher for the New York Mets.
One unit we hear he looked at was an eighth-floor, 3,137-square-foot apartment with four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a 508-square-foot terrace facing the East River. It is the only unit with a terrace except for the penthouse duplex, currently in contract, which has two totalling 1,344 square feet.
