Taylor Swift is accumulating properties in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood at an astonishing pace — and for astonishing prices.
Her most recent purchase – a second-floor apartment at 155 Franklin St. — brings her total spending on the block to an eye-popping $47.7 million.

{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Sources confirmed the latest acquisition, a 3,540-square-foot unit that she bought from financier Jeremy Phillips for $9.75 million in an off-market deal. The New York Post previously reported Phillips had found a buyer for his unit, but the buyer’s identity was shielded behind an LLC.
155 Franklin is where the pop star already owns two top-floor units that she combined to create a monster penthouse duplex measuring 8,000 square feet. She paid $19.95 million for the penthouse properties, which were formerly owned by “Lord of the Rings” director Peter Jackson, in 2014.
Swift reportedly owns two top-floor units at 155 Franklin Street in addition to her new $9.75 million unit. She also owns an $18 million townhouse just next door. (Google Street View)
