Angel investor Jim Payne has bought a smashing new Soho penthouse for $13.82 million, according to city property records.
The 4,300-square-foot penthouse is at 52 Wooster St. — a boutique building with a mere four units.
It was first asking $14.8 million. Thanks to the sale, the building is now sold out for nearly $30 million.
