Heather Mills is about to become a jaded New Yorker.
The hotheaded, newly rich ex-wife of Sir Paul McCartney who says she’s weary of the London press has just gone to contract to buy a $5 million West Village condo in the glass- enclosed Richard Meier towers at 173 Perry St.
The seller is Joe Castaldo, head of the Style Council.
Included in the full-floor pad, with sweeping views of the Hudson, are two bedrooms, two baths, a 40-foot living room/dining area, an open kitchen, two balconies and a private elevator landing.
The high-tech digs, measuring just over 1,800 square feet, also features floor-to-ceiling windows with temperature-controlled shades and a built-in entertainment system.
The high-profile doorman building features room service from its Jean George Vongerichten-run restaurant, a fitness center, high security and a 24-hour concierge.
Buyers there have included Calvin Klein, Nicole Kidman, Martha Stewart (who sold) and Sun Microsystems co-founder William Joy.
Listing broker Hilary Rovins, of Brown Harris Stevens, would not comment on the sale.
Another broker, Wilbur Gonzalez, has a $4 million listing on a lower floor, and said that the building “has the cache and amenities to attract a bold-face crowd.”
