There’s now a $37.5 million penthouse on the market — a price unprecedented in Boston. The 60th floor penthouse suite in the to-be-built Millennium Tower in Downtown Crossing is a whopping 13,000 square feet. That’s only 1,000 square feet smaller than Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen’s new Brookline mansion.

Luxury is popping up in unexpected neighborhoods these days (think Chinatown, the West End, the Seaport), but the priciest properties are still the classic row houses in Back Bay and Beacon Hill of Boston.
