As Curbed first reported, the unit in the St. Mark at 115 E. Ninth St. at Third Avenue asks $575,000, the going rate for the 20-floor doorman building.
The Yoreevo listing does not mention Ramone by name but includes this in its lead: "This is your chance to literally live like a rockstar! This renovated studio in the heart of the East Village was once home to a punk legend!"
Joey's brother Mickey Leigh reportedly inherited the studio in 2014 and sold it in 2018. When he renovated the apartment, the new owner found a stash of Joey's papers behind the kitchen cabinets.
The broker told Curbed that the tenant would pass the memorabilia to the new owner.

I used to visit the building all the time in the 90s, can't believe he lived there, had no idea. And a studio, they were really cheap back they. He couldn't afford something bigger? The area was different back then, a lot of construction since then. RIP Joey, you still listen to your musuc.
