Livvy Dunne Says She Was Rejected From Buying Babe Ruth's New York Apartment for $1.6 Million

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK, JUL 9 – The co-op board rejected Livvy Dunne's application days before key handover, possibly due to concerns about a public figure living there, despite her $1.59 million cash offer.

  • Livvy Dunne revealed Tuesday that the co-op board voted 'not to have me live there' after she offered cash for Babe Ruth’s historic NYC apartment.
  • In March, Dunne offered to buy Babe Ruth’s historic $1.59 million co-op apartment in cash, but the building’s board rejected her application, citing approval requirements.
  • The historic apartment, once Ruth's residence from 1929, features high ceilings, oak floors, and was listed for $1.59 million in March.
  • Rejection fueled online debate and support among young Yankees fans, with Dunne expressing no resentment after the co-op board's decision.
  • In a broader context, Dunne’s rising media empire underscores a clash between co-op gatekeeping rooted in Ruth’s untouched-era standards and the influencer-driven shift in how younger fans engage sports legacy.
