OBAMA TO VISIT HIROSHIMA LATER THIS MONTH

1

Barack Obama later this month will become the first U.S. president to visit Hiroshima in Japan, but he will not apologize for the United States’ dropping of an atomic bomb on the city at the end of World War II, the White House said. Awarded the Nobel Peace Prize early in his presidency in 2009 in part for his commitment to nuclear nonproliferation, Obama on May 27 will tour the site of the world’s first nuclear bombing with Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. With the end of his last term in office approaching, Obama will “highlight his continued commitment to pursuing the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons,” the White House said.

BALTIMORE COP WAIVES JURY TRIAL IN DEATH OF FREDDIE GRAY

A Baltimore police officer will be tried by a judge instead of a jury on charges stemming from the 2015 death of Freddie Gray, a black man who died in police custody, a Maryland judge ruled Tuesday. Edward Nero, 30, is the second officer to face trial in Baltimore City Circuit Court over Gray’s death from a neck injury suffered in a police transport van. The incident sparked rioting and protests across the city of 620,000 and is one of those highlighted by the Black Lives Matter movement. Nero is charged with seconddegree assault, two counts of misconduct in office and reckless endangerment. All are misdemeanors. REUTERS

NYC most affordable city in the state to buy a used car: Report Based on the analysis, Manhattan is the most affordable county in New York state when it comes to purchasing a used vehicle.

Affordability of used cars in New York state, by county

ANGY ALTAMIRANO @MetroNewYork letters@metro.us

New Yorkers across the five boroughs are used to the idea that everything around them, from rent to food, is expensive, but one recent report shows the city that doesn’t sleep is actually affordable in one area: used cars. According to an analysis released Tuesday by Autolist — a used car search engine and buyer intelligence firm — New York City has been ranked as the No. 1 most affordable place in the state to buy a used vehicle. The study revealed that used cars and trucks in the city were on average $881 less than the state’s average and across the country, the city ranks as the 23rd most affordable city. When analyzed by county, Manhattan came out on top in the state with an average $1,710 below the state’s average. The Bronx was in third place with $988

New York City

AUTOLIST

less that the state’s average and Queens came in at No.4 with $965 less. When it comes to different vehicle models in New York City, the most affordable model in the city is the BMW X4 with prices $1,879 below the state average — with Queens specifically being the most affordable county to purchase the particular model. Other affordable models in New York City include the Dodge Ram

1500 pickup, Chevrolet Avalanche, Land Rover Range Rover Evoque and MINI Countryman. Based on results from the study, the number of dealers in an area contributed largely to price differences. Other factors that affected prices include manufacturer community presence and geographic demands. “In looking at the study’s results for New York state specifically,

we found that pricing trends that we saw at the national level were highly visible at the state, county and city level in New York state,” Alex Klein, vice president of data science for Autolist said. “Generally, high-density areas with more dealerships have lower prices, as there are more dealerships and as a result, more competition, which then drives down prices.”

NY metro area sees decrease in expansion in last three decades According to an analysis by BuildZoom, the city has seen a decrease of 45.1 percent since 1970. ANGY ALTAMIRANO @MetroNewYork letters@metro.us

Even as developments keeping popping up across the New York metro area, a recent report shows that the region has actually seen a drastic decrease of expansion in

the past few decades. The metro New York region — which covers New York City and areas in New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania — has experienced a decrease in expansion of 45.1 percent since 1970, according to a recent study released by BuildZoom. Based on data from the analysis, New York has dropped in square miles of expansion from 525 square miles in the 1970s to 288 square miles in the 2000s. New York — along with other major cities

such as Boston, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Diego, and others — have all seen a reduction in outward expansion and in turn experienced high property values. With the decrease, New York decelerated the ninth most of any of the top 40 metro areas in the United States. Other cities — such as Atlanta, Austin, Houston and Phoenix — have instead increased outward expansion, with many of them

either doubling or tripling their developed footprint, and seen greater population growth. According to Dr. Issi Romem, chief economist for BuildZoom, the group of metropolitan areas seeing the decrease in expansion — referred to as “expensive cities” — are being blocked by such barriers as natural geography and local land use policies such as zoning requirements. These areas also deal with stricter qualifications for project approvals and in some cases,

according to Romem, deal with projects being decided by “hyper local authorities” who make it harder for outsiders to come into the city. “America’s largest cities — ‘the expensive cities’ — have slowed down their outward expansion and failed to compensate with densification, but failing to build enough new housing does not maintain their character,” Romem said. “Instead, it affects the nature of who can and cannot afford to live in these cities.”

Even with its reported decrease in expansion, New York City itself reached a record high in population of over 8 million residents, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The growth of population was seen largely in the outer boroughs, such as Queens, Brooklyn and the Bronx. Based on the U.S. Census Bureau’s analysis, demographers project that the city’s population will go over the 9 million mark by 2040.

Police release photo of car involved in Upper West Side hit-and-run The NYPD is asking for the public’s help in locating a vehicle involved in a hit-and-run Monday afternoon in the Upper West Side that left four pedestrians injured. At about 4:38 p.m. Tuesday police responded to a car crash near West 62nd Street and Broadway where emergency personnel had transported four victims to local hospitals. The victims included a 39-year-old woman with a severe cut to her left arm who was taken to Bellevue Hospital in critical condition; a 23-year-old man with a broken nose and cuts to his right arm and a 50-year-old man with a broken arm who were taken to St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital; and a 42-year-old man with a bruise to his right arm who was taken to Cornell Medical Center. A preliminary investigation found that a black four-door 1999 Honda Accord had been

traveling northbound on Broadway at a high speed when it rear-ended a yellow 2004 Nissan taxi, police said. The taxi then accelerated onto the sidewalk and crashed into a mobile food cart — containing a worker inside — which fell over and struck the four pedestrians on the sidewalk, according to cops. The Honda then drove away northbound on Broadway.

On Tuesday morning, police released a photo of the Honda Accord, which has a Pennsylvania license plate #KCN0713. The sedan suffered damage to the front end, mainly on the passenger side of the car. Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). ANGY ALTAMIRANO

The window washers hang precariously from a building in lower Manhattan. LENYON WHITAKER

Workers rescued from dangling scaffolding in lower Manhattan Rescuers were able to save the workers as they climbed through one of the windows. ANGY ALTAMIRANO @MetroNewYork letters@metro.us

Firefighters rushed to the aid of two workers Tuesday morning as they were left dangling from a scaffold 17 stories above the ground in lower Manhattan. The workers, who were washing windows at 33 Maiden Lane, were on the slanted scaffold starting at around 9:50 a.m. after the rig got stuck on the side of the building, according to the FDNY. Police closed off surrounding streets as authorities made their way to rescue the workers.

NYPD Emergency Services Unit personnel were in the process of climbing down from the roof of the building to provide the two men lifesaving ropes to secure them, officials said. Around 10:32 a.m., rescuers were able to save the workers after smashing through a window on the 16th floor of the 27-story building. “They were calm, they were professional,” said FDNY Deputy Assistant Chief Michael Gala. Both workers were taken to New York Downtown Hospital to be treated for minor injuries. The scaffolding was leveled by noon and fully lifted at about 2:30 p.m. The FDNY said maintenance workers and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) will evaluate and investigate the situation.

QUEENS ELDERLY ATTACK Man punches elderly woman as she walked into Queens subway station: Police Police are looking for a man they say attacked a 74-year-old woman as she made her way into a Queens subway station earlier this month. On May 1 at about 5:15 p.m., the victim was walking down the stairs of the 65th Street station when the suspect — described as a black man between 5 foot 10 and 6 foot — got into her face as he walked up the stairs, according to authorities. The man then allegedly punched the elderly woman in the head once and ran up the stairs onto the street, police said. The victim was taken to Elmhurst General Hospital where she was treated and released. Police have released a video of the suspect after the attack near the intersection of 69th Street and 38th Avenue. He was last seen wearing a red jacket

NY, NJ officials urge reforms for ‘bizarre’ permitting process The executive director of New York City’s biggest regional transportation authority on Monday urged reforms of the nation’s environmental review process for infrastructure projects to cut costs due to bureaucratic delays. “A rational, refined, streamlined environmental process is actually a huge step further and benefits the environment,” said Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Executive Director Pat Foye. Foye and U.S. Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey said during a panel discussion that excessive red tape threatened to make Amtrak’s $24 billion Gateway Project, which includes digging new rail tunnels beneath the Hudson River, significantly more expensive. An 18-month delay in permitting could cause project construction costs to soar $1.8 billion,

according to a report by Common Good, which sponsored the panel. The longer permitting delays last, the higher construction costs would rise, to an extra $6.6 billion if the delays last as long as five-and-a-half years, the report found. The permitting process for Gateway began Monday, Amtrak said, adding that it hopes to be done with that phase in two years. Panel participants called the permitting process “headless” and “bizarre” and said it resulted in a 20,000-page environmental review document for the Bayonne Bridge. Officials say Gateway is essential to the economic viability of the region. The existing rail tunnel under the Hudson River transports 200,000 commuters into Manhattan each day. In December, the Port Authority’s board officially en-

Sen. Cory Booker GETTY IMAGES

dorsed the creation of a Gateway Development Corp. to oversee the project. The federal government has agreed to pay half of the project cost, with the two states and Port Authority sharing the rest. In addition to a new tunnel, Gateway includes new bridges, track and upgrades to train stations in Newark, New Jersey, and Manhattan. Foyer called last year for an expedited permitting process to save money when he estimated that the tunnel portion alone could cost $10 billion. REUTERS

El Paso County judge Gilbert Martinez ordered the mental evaluation of Dear in December after the South Carolina native insisted on firing his attorney and representing himself in a case stemming from the first fatal attack on a U.S. abortion provider since 2009. Dear, who has insisted he is competent, declared himself guilty and a “warrior for the babies� in previous courtroom outbursts. If Martinez rules Dear unfit — meaning he is incapable of understanding the proceedings and assisting in his own defense — the case will be suspended and he will

be sent back to a state hospital where doctors will seek to restore him to competency. The first of two psychologists to testify April 28, Jackie Grimmett, said Dear appeared to be suffering from a delusional disorder, possessing a factual but not rational understanding of the criminal proceedings. Her colleague, B. Thomas Gray, concurred that Dear was delusional, saying the defendant “intends to plead guilty unless God tells him differently.� A police detective who took the stand recounted Dear telling police after his arrest that he believed he was being followed by 10 federal agents the day of the shooting.

Teams at forward camps are looking for a weather “window” to open in the next few days, clearing the way to the 29,035 foot summit along the Southeast Ridge first climbed by New Zealand’s Sir Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay in 1953. The southern route, on the Nepali side of the mountain, has suffered tragedy over the past two years, with 16 sherpa guides killed by an avalanche in the treacherous Khumbu Icefall in 2014. Last year, an earth-

quake that killed 9,000 people across Nepal sent a massive snowslide crashing into Base Camp, killing at least 18 climbers and guides and putting an end to that year’s campaign. At least 289 climbers and their guides are in different high camps waiting for a weather window and jostling to become the first to scale

the peak. Nearly 700 people summitted in 2013. Tourism Department official Gyanendra Shrestha said climbers had fixed ropes up to the South Col, the final camp, at about 26,246 feet, and were stocking it with supplies. “Climbers have begun to move from the base camp to higher camps for the summit,” Shrestha told Reuters from Base Camp. Ang Tshering Sherpa, chief of the Nepal Mountaineering Association, who is in touch with climbers at Base Camp, said in Kathmandu that, weather permitting, the route from the South Col to the summit would be fixed on Wednesday.

The information you are about to read can possibly save you from years and years of agonizing knee pain. It might even keep you from getting total knee replacement surgery. Please pay careful attention. What you are about to read is a cutting-edge medical treatment... but it is NOT what it appears to be at ďŹ rst glance. In fact, I’m going to have to ask for a bit of patience from you if you have already unsuccessfully tried any (or many) other knee arthritis pain treatments. You see, many knee arthritis sufferers had already tried the treatment we are going to talk about and did not get the results they wanted. But I assure you there is something VERY DIFFERENT about the technology and the way we do this treatment that makes it much different. And often gets results when many others have failed. This is why patients come from all over the tri-state area and beyond to have their knee arthritis pain treated here. Would You Like Instant Proof?

Downtown NYC Medical Institute is a medical clinic with multiple locations in New York City that has treated thousands of knee arthritis patients. Here is what every knee arthritis sufferer should know about the best treatments and options available today. And why waiting drastically decreases your chances to live a pain free life again.

eliminating the pain. What Results Can Be Expected? Like all medical treatments, the results vary and can not be predicted. In fact, it is impossible to predict results and there are no statistics proving what the “averageâ€? patients can expect. Everyone is individual and gets individual results - so we never tell anyone to expect the same results as any of our other patients. But to be 100% clear - many knee arthritis sufferers get dramatic results. It is not uncommon for patients to either postpone knee replacement surgery for years... or even permanently cancel it. What Are Treatments Like? Treatments are simple, fast and virtually painless. The total time of the procedure itself is only 10 minutes and most say it is like getting a u shot. You walk out of the clinic just minutes after your procedure. But There Is A BIG Problem The key is the treatment must be EXTREMELY PRECISE. If the injection is slightly off, the medication will not get into the knee joint and the treatment will not work. That’s why the experts at OsteoReleif Institute use advanced digital imaging so they can see the injection going directly into the knee joint during the treatment. Research shows that doctors performing joint injections without imaging miss the joint as much as 30% of the time. If you had viscosupplementation without this special digital imaging without good results this may be why. After I had the treatments... the last tuneup...

“I don’t have any pain any more�

I was amazed at the ease with which I was evaluated and the treatment schedule implemented. The results I had at Downtown NYC Medical Institute were outstanding. I cannot ask for better results. After the treatment I was able to go back to work with no discomfort at all. They use a digital monitor to locate the space that they use the treatment for and it’s... it’s like exact science.

Downtown NYC Medical said after looking at x-rays they could help. That procedure is so basic so simple so quick in 15 minutes you are in and out. I did both legs at once which is great. When I got up out of the chair I stood up and I said, “Hey this feels terriďŹ c.â€?

Knee Arthritis Pain: The Untold Story

THOUSANDS of knee arthritis sufferers ock for this advanced medical treatment - How they relieved pain while so many continue to suffer

If you want instant proof - you can just look at all all the actual patient testimonials we have included. These patients were once skeptical just like you... and are now either pain free... or eliminated quite a bit of their pain. Here’s the most important thing: Many said they saw this information SEVERAL times before ďŹ nally deciding to take action and give us a call. As you can see - they are happy they did. Once crippled with knee pain, they are playing golf again, dancing again, riding bikes again and going for long walks again. But we do get one very common complaint. And it is: “I wish I started this treatment much sooner.â€? Let’s be very clear about this. Time is the most precious thing. There is no way to slow it down - or get any back once it is gone. All the more reason for you to not suffer even one more second than you have to. Missing life suffering in pain is a tragedy. It’s time for you to get rid of your knee pan and start living the life you want and deserve. And please understand this: One of the keys to success in medicine is early diagnosis and treatment. Like many diseases, arthritis only gets worse over time. The longer you wait - the more damage to your knee and the more pain you will be in. If you wait too long, the entire knee joint will be degenerated and your ONLY option will be total knee replacement. If you are suffering with knee arthritis pain, here is why you should act RIGHT NOW: When you have arthritis, you suffer a decrease in the lubricating uids in your knee. In other words, your knee joints basically “dries up.â€? The lubricating uid that decreases is called “synovial uid.â€? Pharmaceutical companies (with the help of scientists) can now make synovial uid-like compounds that... during viscosupplementation treatments... doctors precisely inject directly into the knee joint. This helps replace the lubricating uid to the knee joint - allowing it to move more freely and smoothly and often decreasing or even Many insurances cover these treatments for qualiďŹ ed candidates: Most Out-of-Network Insurance Plans United Health Care In-Network & Out-of - Network (*except UHC Community Plan) 4RADITIONAL -EDICARE s !!20 -EDICARE -OST 5NION 0LANS s 4RANSIT 7ORKER 0LANS 7ORK 2ELATED )NJURIES 7ORK #OMP !UTO !CCIDENT PLANS Out of newtork: !ETNA s #IGNA s %MPIRE s /XFORD s 'HI s Blue Cross Blue Shield & others

That’s why Downtown NYC Medical Institute even takes it one step further. They do not just use one form of advanced imaging during treatment - they use two in their “double conďŹ rmationâ€? process. This is to ensure patients get the best possible results. Another Important Factor Viscosupplementation medications also come in several different brands and chemical make-ups. Just like all medications, some people respond better to some than others. While many doctors only use one brand, the experts at Downtown NYC Medical Institute use several and great effort is taken to ďŹ gure out what the best one for YOU is. What To Do Next If You Are In Pain: Special Your Invitation Downtown NYC Medical Institute offers a limited number of complimentary knee arthritis treatment screenings every month. These screenings are a way for knee arthritis sufferers to get some of their questions answered and see if they are a candidate for one of the cutting-edge treatments offered at Downtown NYC Medical Institute.

Craig D.O. 65 Broadway, New York, NY It got to the point where I couldn’t stand up for a period of time and I knew something had to be done about it. You walk into the doctors ofďŹ ce - he puts your leg in a machine - he shows you where he is going to do the procedure and before you know it... it’s done and you’re outta there. Now I’m able to take out my bicycle a couple of the guys and myself we took a couple of rides out in the woods and we had a good time and I couldn’t do that for years and now I’m able to do it again.

I came to the clinic because I was not sleeping at night. My leg was Pounding. There were times when I sat too long the knee would tighten up. I would get in pain and I would be miserable and I would have it for the whole night. After the treatment I goof around with my grandchildren. I feel like a new woman. It’s great. I know I don’t have to sit on the couch and be in pain and I can just pick up and get dressed and go out. It was so gentle.

“I feel like a new woman�

I just go right to the golf course. I’m able to keep up with these guys who walk - I’m right next to them! My guys on the golf course would say Hey, look at this he doesn’t need us to put the ball up any more. When I’m playing on the course I don’t have any pain any more I don’t have any aches and pain. I’m out there playing!

Prior the the relief center I was taking (9:30) and I was becoming addicted to it and it was damaging my health. Since the treatment, I’ve been able to be less dependent on them. I don’t feel helpless anymore. Since going through the procedure I can ďŹ nally live. I can ďŹ nally live my life.

“I Can Finally Live My Life�

One day, as I was running, my knee got tighter and tighter. I had to stop and just walk home. They x-rayed me and said I was a candidate for it. You sit there for about 2-3 minutes and then you are up and walking out the door. I am ecstatic with the results of this procedure because I could not run just weeks before. I ran my race without any issues. I felt good - it just opened a door that was closing.

“I am ecstatic with the results of this procedure�

The pain was excruciating like 24/7. Nothing I took over-the-counter would work so I knew it was something more serious. When I saw that my condition was not getting any better, I decided to do something about it and I immediately made an appointment - I went and started treatment. The feeling of getting back to my dancing and my mobility is indescribable. I feel like a new woman It’s amazing.

16 GOSSIP

Ryan Gosling is a dad once more Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes have welcomed their second child, according to some shady detective work by TMZ. The birth certificate lists the new baby as a girl named Amada Lee Gosling, born April 29 at 8:03 a.m. in Santa Monica, California. And no, they didn’t misspell “Amanda.” Amada — also the middle name of the couple’s first daughter, who is 20 months old — is the name of Mendes’ late grandmother. And also her character in the 2007 police drama “We Own the Night,” but that seems like a less-sentimental reference. If this all seems kind of sudden, it’s because word hadn’t even gotten out that the notoriously press-shy couple was expecting again until last month. And now the baby is here! Which is great,

FILM

Tilda Swinton doesn’t go full Bowie The Oscar-winner mixed her influences to play a rocker in the new “A Bigger Splash.” MATT PRIGGE @mattprigge

matt.prigge@metro.us

In “A Bigger Splash,” Tilda Swinton almost doesn’t speak at all. That might be a good hook for a movie, but it’s downright cruel for those who like hearing the Oscar-winner blabber. In real life she’s a talker, quick to launch into epic, eloquent monologues. But this new film — her third feature with Italian director Luca Guadagnino, including “I Am Love” — robs her character of speech, the result of an operation she got thanks to her being a stadium-packing rock star. Swinton’s Marianne Lane isn’t completely mum. When she speaks, which she does as infrequently as she can, it’s in a husk. Even that can be hard on the vocal chords. Not that

Swinton was ever worried. “I’m so not a professional. I’m sure a professional would know how to do it without damaging their voice. But I didn’t think of it,” Swinton says. “I haven’t damaged my voice. So my rock career is safe.” Rock stardom is something Tilda knows at least something about, having worked with David Bowie. “Funnily enough, we didn’t think of Bowie,” Swinton explains. “But the truth is anybody who puts on a sequin jumpsuit for the rest of time is going to be reminiscent of Bowie.” Instead she thought of Chrissie Hynde, Patti Smith, Joan Jett, P.J. Harvey. “She’s like all sorts of people I am lucky enough to know, with that much drama in their life.” “A Bigger Splash” isn’t about her rocking out, though. It follows Marianne on an extended vacation on the arid but gorgeous Mediterranean island of Pantelleria, doing little but lounging about

with her photographer boyfriend (Matthias Schoenaerts). Their peaceful idyll is upset by the arrival of Henry (Ralph Fiennes), a music producer and close friend (and, for her, a former lover) who, unlike them, is still perpetually very much on. “He’s trying to keep it going, keep the party going. And she wants to go home and be peaceful and get some rest,” says Swinton. “Being a rock star brings with it a particular need for retreat.”

Speaking about not speaking Marianne wasn’t always going to be a rocker. In the original script she was an actress, and she had a normal amount of dialogue. At first Swinton wasn’t keen on taking on that baggage. “I was going to not make a film that particular year. My mother had just died, and I didn’t want to do anything. I certainly didn’t want to play

an actress who talked a lot,” Swinton recalls. Guadagnino was persistent, though, and she ultimately had to ask what it would take for her to come onboard. When she realized Marianne could have lost her voice it all clicked. It’s still a difficult exercise to play someone who can’t use words to express herself. “It’s a very strange thing

saying to yourself, ‘I can’t talk,’” she says. “Sometimes there are things that have to be said, and they just burst out of you. We set ourselves this challenge: ‘In every scene you won’t say anything, and just feel what needs to be said.’ I managed to get out of it without breaking my vows not to speak. But occasionally I had to say something.”

How to buy art on a budget Your walls deserve better than those mass-produced prints. MONICA WEYMOUTH @MetroNewYork letters@metro.us

That Audrey Hepburn poster looked great in your college dorm. Those Ikea prints? Totally acceptable for your first apartment. But time has come to upgrade your art, adults (and aspiring adults) of the world. “When you buy original art, you’re not buying something massproduced that everyone in the world has,” says Rachel Zimmerman, founder of InLiquid, a Philadelphia-based virtual hub for visual artists. Unfortunately, buying art isn’t as easy as buying a couch. We hit up the experts for some tips on starting a budget-friendly personal collection.

Go local The best place to find great original art? Right under your nose. Not only is buying local good for your wallet, it’s good for your community. “Be a part of your local art history,” says David Parker, a contemporary and modern art advisor to collectors worldwide. “Look at any museum anywhere and you’ll see that it exists because someone cared about art enough to look after it, and that shaped an entire space. If you can spend $300 a year buying work from an artist you love, after 20 years, you might be their big-

gest supporter.” Pro tip: For great deals on work from up-and-comers, hit up student shows.

Buy prints wisely If you can’t afford an original piece, prints are a solid alternative — if you do your research, that is. “Go to a reputable source and make sure it is authentic,” says Rebecca O’Leary, a consultant to both private and corporate collectors. “There are a lot of pseudo art dealers who will sell you a framed digital copy and call it an ‘original print from a secondary source’ for a high price. It can be like buying a used car — be sure you know who you are buying from.”

home

Trust your gut Once you get yourself out to a gallery and interacting with art, buying a piece is actually quite simple. “It’s about looking and feeling: What is your response to what you’re looking at? Are you feeling it? If not, move on,” says Parker. “The word that I always come back to is ‘resonance.’ Does the work resonate with you on some level? If so, it’s the right work. Don’t let someone tell you that one silkscreen is better than another.”

While brokers try everything from price cuts to publicity stunts to generate interest in their product, the market just ain’t buying some of what they have to sell. A number of penthouses are lingering for months — and even years — before finding a buyer. Those that have been written about in the media and plugged aggressively on social media and television by brokers with large followings don’t seem to be selling any quicker than their less-talked-about counterparts. Which penthouses have lingered longest? Here’s our roundup of flashy units that have had long lives as listed properties.

Tommy Hilfiger’s Plaza Hotel penthouse The fashion mogul’s 6,000-square-foot pad has been on and off the market since 2013, when it was first asking $80 million, or $13,333 per square foot. Now listed for a humbler $68.95 million, the spread has four bedrooms and Central Park views. Hilfiger spent $25 million to buy three units in 2008, and then shelled out another $20 million to combine and renovate the space.

11 North Moore Sure, the Adjmi & Andreoli-designed penthouse

One Beacon Court

at 11 North Moore has seen its share of interest from A-list buyers — actor Leonardo DiCaprio is among those who reportedly scoped it out. But the luxe Tribeca pad, developed by VE Equities, hasn’t found a buyer since hitting the market at $40 million in January 2014. The apartment is more than 7,000 square feet and has roughly 3,100 square feet of outdoor space (and a private outdoor pool). After lowering the price to $29.95 million last year, Douglas Elliman’s Fredrik Eklund, who is marketing the condo with colleague John Gomes, told the New York Daily News: “We made a decision to get real and sell it.â€?

Steven A. Cohen’s penthouse at One Beacon Court Last year, the New York Post suggested that hedge funder Steven A. Cohen’s penthouse at One Beacon Court was “jinxed.â€? That’s up for debate, but the fact is the spread at 151 E. 58th St., above Bloomberg headquarters, hasn’t found a buyer since it hit the market in 2013. The penthouse is now asking $72 million — a discount from the initial asking price of $110 million. Cohen bought the 9,000-square-foot pad for $24 million in 2005. E.B. SOLOMONT

I have mentioned them a few times before in this space, but it’s only right that Leicester City (23-11-3) gets a little more love since they officially won the 2015-16 Barclays Premier League title. The Foxes had clinched their first ever topflight title on May 2 with Tottenham’s (19-13-5) 2-2 draw with Chelsea (12-12-12), but Leicester City continued the never-ending party on Saturday as they beat Everton (10-14-12) 3-1 at King Power Stadium in front of their eternally grateful home fans. By now you’ve probably heard that they were 5000-1 favorites to win the BPL crown but this truly is one of the great underdog stories in sports history — so it’s worth rehashing.

Bayern Munich’s Bundesliga dynasty They might have fallen in the Champions League semifinals for the third year in a row, but Bayern Munich (27-4-2) still deserves major credit for winning its fifth straight Bundesliga title. Last Saturday they won 2-1 at FC Ingolstadt (10-10-13) to wrap up the German title with two matches left in the season. Bayern has scored 77 goals and has only allowed 16 in league play — by any measure they are still one of the top clubs in the world.

All-Spanish Champions League Final It’s doubtful when this tournament began last year (yes it takes that long to complete it) that many people would have picked Atletico Madrid vs. Real Madrid to meet in the 2016 Champions League Final

— yet here we are. Atletico lost 2-1 at Bayern last week but advanced thanks to that all-important away goal (2-2 on aggregate). Real Madrid beat Manchester City 1-0 last Wednesday at home and moved on (aggregate 1-0) to club soccer’s Super Bowl — which will take place on Saturday, May 28 (2:45, FOX) in Milan, Italy.

Liverpool in the mix It understandably won’t get nearly the same amount of coverage as the Champions League Final, but make no mistake the Europa League Final is important as well. Last Thursday, Liverpool won 3-0 against Villarreal (3-1 aggregate) to reach the title game where they will meet Sevilla (Spain), which beat Shakhtar Donetsk 3-1 (5-3 on aggregate). That Final will be on Wednesday, May 18 (2:45, FOX Sports 1) in Basel, Switzerland.

Yankees showing signs of life The Yanks are starting to grab some wins but the success might not last. ROBERT CRISCOLA @ItsGood2BeKing sports@metro.us

Yankee fans have finally had something to cheer about over the past few days after a dismal beginning to the 2016 season. The Bombers beat the Royals, 6-3, on Monday night to give themselves three wins in four days. Brian McCann, Carlos Beltran, Brett Gardner and Aaron Hicks all went deep in Monday night’s game, while Aroldis Chapman shut the door in his first appearance of the season and touched 101 mph on the radar gun. But the Yankees are still well under .500 and sit in last place in the AL East. They face a difficult stretch of games from now until the end of May. The pinstripers still have to deal with the 2015 World Series Champion Royals midweek before squaring off with the AL’s best team, the Chicago White Sox, over

the weekend. They’re currently in line to face Chris Sale (7-0, 1.79 ERA) on Friday. Sale has befuddled them in the past (31, 1.21 ERA in six career starts). After that series concludes the Bombers will go on the road to face the Diamondbacks, where

Jays, who gave them fits last year (they were 6-13 against their neighbors to the north) and ultimately beat them out of the division crown. The Yankees will face Toronto five times before the month of May ends, with a road series against the Rays sandwiched in between. The last thing the Yankees need this month is DL casualties piling up, but that’s been exactly what’s happening. Alex Rodriguez and C.C. Sabathia have already missed time due to hamstring and groin problems, and Jacoby Ellsbury could soon join them on the sideline as he tweaked his hip running the bases in a game against the Red Sox last Friday. â€œYou start to worry about your depth a little bit when [injuries] start to mount,â€? New York manager Joe Girardi told reporters on Monday. “It can add up, and we’ve seen it add up in the past.â€? Ellsbury’s replacement is Hicks, who before Monday night’s game was hitting a dreadful .122 in 41 prior at-bats.
