A Morgan Stanley bigwig has sold his longtime digs on the Upper East Side, records show.
Michael Boublik, managing director at Morgan Stanley, who chairs the investment bank’s regional mergers and acquisitions division, has offloaded his four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath, pre-war co-op on East 79th Street for $6.5 million, according to a deed that appeared in the city register Thursday.
Boublik and his wife, Miriam, who is a management consultant turned philanthropist, both signed the deed, records show.
The buyer is David Robbins, who also signed the documents himself. He does not appear to have been represented by an attorney.
The full-floor apartment boasts views facing south, east and north. It features 9-foot-4-inch ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, a library and a chef’s kitchen.
Built in 1928, the 15-unit property between Lexington and Park avenues was converted into co-ops in 1946, according to StreetEasy.
The Boubliks, who appear to have bought the home in 2003 for an unknown amount, first put it on the market for $6.9 million in May 2024 — the same month the pair acquired a five-bedroom triplex penthouse at a Park Avenue property for $8.2 million from Louis Camilleri, the former chief executive of Ferrari, Crain’s reported.
Over on East 79th Street, meanwhile, the Boubliks slashed the price just once, by 3%, before the unit went into contract, according to information on StreetEasy.
Sotheby’s International Realty’s Wendy Arriz and Meghan Miller, the listed brokers for the unit, did not return requests for comment by press time.
