Psst, practice self care and buy Leonardo DiCaprio's $8.5 million "wellness" apartment
Film News Leonardo DiCaprio
You may call him the Jay Gatsby of wellness. Leonardo DiCaprio’s former West Village apartment is back on the market after five years, with a price tag of $8.5 million. The 66 East 11th Street apartment in Greenwich Village is described, in the listing, as an “uber eco-friendly environment that has been called ‘the healthiest building in New York City.’”
The Green Delos building boasts amenities such as vitamin C-infused showers, purified air, in-duct aromatherapy, “posture-supportive” heat reflexology flooring, circadian rhythm lighting system, and irrigated interior planters to easily grow plants indoors. Think of it as being able to go to the spa every single day. Built in 1897, the terra cotta building was designed and constructed by Loffredo Brooks Architects. The 3,663-square foot, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom space also requires a $6,118 monthly maintenance fee to keep all of the amenities in check. Now that’s self care.
As the only “WELL Certified” building in the world, the Green Delos building is supposed to exemplify the principles of Delos Living, a non-profit committed to promoting wellness in real estate. Former board members include Bill Gates and Jeff Vinik, with DiCaprio currently serving on the advisory board. DiCaprio originally purchased the apartment for $10 million in 2014, selling it for $2 million dollars less two years later.
The listing asks, “When you think about it, what price would you put on your health?” We’ll stick to a face mask and rolling a blunt, but thank you.

Is there no yard? What am I supposed to do with all my garden butts?
The Green Delos building boasts amenities such as vitamin C-infused showers,MY BRAIN HURTS.That does it. I’m off to work on the next must-have home wellness accoutrement: the enema bar.
as a hungry bottom I eagerly await.
Wait, so I’ve been showering in Minute Maid for years for no good reason?
Came here to say that I do not believe this is really a thing and refuse to google it because I don’t want to find out that it is.
I’ll stick with chocolate bars, thanks!
Why not both?
I wondered why your avatar is Tubgirl.
I own a vitamin C–infused showerhead! It’s just a $30 filter from Amazon, nothing fancy. Vitamin C is known to be beneficial for the skin when applied as a serum, no idea if it does anything when you’re just washing yourself with water though.
“When you think about it, what price would you put on your health?” I’ve thought about it. Less.
Cynical thought of the day: The term “wellness” was invented to sound new and different from the word “health” which means the exact same thing, but is more likely to get you regulated.

It may not seem obvious, but anything with “East” in the address isn’t in the West Village…
I only practice self abuse
Delos, eh? Insert “when do they start with the android stuff?” joke here.
I wouldn’t want a DiCaprio secret fuck-pad, no amount of deep cleaning is getting the semen out of those walls no matter how much of it was wellness.
watch me buy it and just order all the fast food and never be healthy
“uber eco-friendly environment…”
