And the beat goes on.
Longtime drummer Anton Fig, who played in Paul Shaffer‘s house band for the “Late Show With David Letterman,” is ready to make a move.
The musician recently listed his posh, loft-like apartment on Manhattan’s West Side for $2,995,000. He paid $2,404,000 for it in 2015.
Perched beside the Hudson River and just steps from Riverside Park, the three-bedroom, two-bath, 1,700-square-foot prewar dwelling sports spectacular views from its large windows.

Built in 1907, the apartment has solid bones that have been beautifully updated with every modern convenience. The unit is situated on the building’s southwest corner and has custom windows that flood its living and dining spaces with natural light.
The 9.5-foot ceilings feel lofty, and the dark-stained oak flooring adds a chic vibe. The well-appointed kitchen has a luxe range, Bosch dishwasher, and Waterworks faucets.
Loads of cabinets and other built-in storage throughout the home boost its functionality.
One bedroom is used as a music room, of course; but it could be repurposed as an office, a gym, or nursery. Nearby, the main bathroom features Spanish tiling and a deep Kohler tub for two.
Amenities in this cooperative building abound, including a live-in superintendent, full-time doorman service, bike storage, and a parking garage—albeit with a wait list.

Fig began drumming at the tender age of 4 and eventually earned a music degree from Boston’s New England Conservatory of Music. In addition to nearly 30 years on late-night television, where he performed with such musical legends as Miles Davis, Bruce Springsteen, and Tony Bennett, the 70-year-old pro has also drummed for Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, Mick Jagger, and Bob Dylan.
