Stunning Upper East Side Gilded Age mansion will be gutted and turned into private club for NYC elites
One of the Upper East Side's most prominent and last Gilded Age mansions is slated for a sweeping interior teardown, part of a plan to transform the 1903 landmark into a members-only private club with residences above. Permits recently filed with the Department of Buildings outline a $19 million renovation at 854 Fifth Avenue that would strip out and reconfigure more than half of the property's footprint — which includes adding a rooftop extension and enclosing the courtyard for expanded dining space, according to Crains. The exterior, protected under the city's landmark designation, is expected to remain intact. The mansion is roughly 16,000 square feet. Plans include reimagining the lower floors as dining rooms, lounges, and a bar for club members — while the top two levels will hold three private apartments totaling around 6,000 square feet. Once permits are approved, construction will soon begin. 8 Plans are moving forward to convert the landmarked Gilded Age mansion at 854 Fifth Avenue into a members-only private club.

Premier League has no say on delay over Man City charges, says chief exec
Premier League chief executive Richard Masters said his "frustration" at waiting for a verdict in a series of financial charges against Manchester City is irrelevant as the case is in the hands of an independent hearing. The Premier League issued more than 100 charges against City in February 2023 related to alleged breaches of its financial rules and with allegedly failing to co-operate with the subsequent investigation. The case was heard by a commission between September and December last year but no decision has been published. The issue continues to hang over the league as the 2025/26 season gets underway this weekend, but Masters said his organisation has no control over when a verdict will be reached. "Once the allegations, the charge has been put forward, they go before an independent panel, which is independently selected, and they are then in charge of the process and its timings," Masters told Sky Sports News. "They hear the case, they decide the outcome, and we have no influence over that, over it or its timing. "And that's right, if you think from an independence point of view, that there is independent people making those decisions, and we just have to be waiting. "My frustration is irrelevant, really. I mean, I just have to wait, and legal processes rarely take less time than you anticipated, but we have to be patient." City deny any wrongdoing and have said they have a "comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence" to clear their name. But if they are found guilty, they could face a range of punishments, including a severe points penalty, or even be kicked out of the Premier League. City were charged with failing to report accurate financial information for nine seasons stretching from 2009/10 to 2017/18, as well as failing to provide full details of former manager Roberto Mancini's pay between 2009/10 and 2012/13. They are also charged with failing to provide full details of remuneration in contracts with players between 2010/11 and 2015/16, and with failing to co-operate with the investigation over a period from 2018 to 2023. Since an Abu Dhabi-backed takeover in 2008, City's fortunes have been transformed on the field from also-rans to the dominant force in English football. Eight of their 10 top-flight league titles have come since 2012 and they also won the Champions League for the first time in 2023. kca/jdg/nf

Liverpool believe they're about to agree 'MASSIVE bargain'
Liverpool believe they're on the verge of agreeing a massive bargain'. The incredible summer continues. Liverpool have already had a summer for the ages. The Reds set about building a squad for Arne Slot from the very first minute, moving stars in and out. We've seen some key ones leave. Trent Alexander-Arnold joined Real Madrid, Caoimhin Kelleher signed for Brentford, both Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez left for big fees. Shop the LFC Store LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! But perhaps the most interesting is Jarell Quansah joining Bayer Leverkusen. Liverpool didn't just lose one of their four centre-back options - a homegrown player departed. And that's been a theme. Alexander-Arnold and Kelleher are both homegrown, though Liverpool moved for replacements. They haven't done that with Quansah. Yet. Liverpool move for Giovanni Leoni Liverpool are pushing to sign Giovanni Leoni from Parma. The 18-year-old is one of the hottest prospects in European football and the kind of centre-back you hope develops into a world-beater. The Reds are willing to bank on that, certainly. They're going to put up a sizeable fee for a teenager - though, Anfield Watch understands they feel they're getting a bargain. Liverpool value Leoni at around €50m when taking his potential and established status as a Serie A defender into account. Reports suggest they might get him for as 'little' as €35m to €40m. That's been described internally as a 'massive bargain' according to sources close to the deal. Parma, after all, have already rejected offers for Leoni from English sides that were thought to be close to those numbers. Liverpool naturally expected to pay considerably more but the structure of the deal appears to have convinced Parma. The Reds are now pushing forward for Leoni and hope to get a deal wrapped up. The transfer window does have another couple of weeks to run but hopefully we get a strong update on this one shortly. Liverpool are eager.
