Livvy Dunne says bid to buy Babe Ruth’s apartment rejected

Livvy Dunne is going through the same pain so many New York City apartment hunters have experienced, as the social media sensation says her bid to buy an apartment that was once owned by Babe Ruth was rejected by the building’s co-op board.

The former LSU gymnast took to TikTok to discuss how she fell for a three-bedroom Upper West Side apartment that the New York Yankees legend lived in for several years. Per Fox Business, the apartment sold for $1.58 million in 2016 and went back on the market in March.

However, as she explained in a post on Tuesday, her best-laid plans didn’t quite work out.

‘Guys, I’m so upset,’ started Dunne, setting up how she had decided to make her first foray into property ownership after finding an apartment in Manhattan.

‘The gag was, it was Babe Ruth’s apartment,’ said Dunne. ‘I was going to buy it, and I was going to pay with cash. Like, I wanted this apartment bad… It was just iconic. Like, it was so cool that it was Babe Ruth’s apartment!’

Dunne began preparing for the move, hiring an interior designer and showing the place to her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes. However, while Dunne’s confidence that she was going to be living it up in Ruth’s former residence, the building’s co-op board had other ideas.

‘The week that I’m supposed to get my keys to my brand new apartment, I get a call: the co-op board denied me,’ explained Dunne. ‘So pretty much, the people in the building voted to not have me live there.’

Dunne shrugged off the rejection, joking that perhaps the board was comprised entirely of Alabama fans before speculating that ‘maybe they didn’t want a public figure living there.’

For Dunne, the apartment hunt continues, but the 22-year-old says she’s taking one lesson from the incident.

‘Long story short, don’t try to live in a co-op. You might get denied, and you won’t get Babe Ruth’s apartment.’
