Inside the Building Where Heath Died

The Soho building on Broome St. where Heath Ledger died currently features an apartment for rent -- for only $23,000 a month.
421 Broome Street
So what does nearly $25K get you for 30 days? The 4,400 sq. ft., 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath loft features 15' ceilings, a fireplace, private balcony, central air, wood floors and a laundry room -- according to the real estate company, The Corcoran Group.

Neighbors tells us the building is supposed to be zoned specifically for artists -- meaning residents aren't allowed to move in unless they are approved by the city's Department of Cultural Affairs. But we're told that doesn't usually happen, and residents with deep pockets often get to move in instead.

19. Manhattan is ground zero for the housing bubble. No real artist could afford to live anywhere around there. Poor Heath would have been better off staying in overpriced London.

22. To Heaths 2 year old daughter: When you grow up you'll be able to read how much everyone loved your Father.

23. Guess what all? When you sign on and take millions of dollars from the public, you belong to the public. When most of us die it won't be published news, but you know what? Heath and many others make the choice to have their every move displayed for all to see and know.

Get over it....TMZ has a right to earn a living off the ones that are making multi billion dollars a year off of us....

GOOD DAY!!

28. This is so tasteless...

29. I agree with some of the above users here... you really are teetering on the edge of bad taste. Especially with the whole Lindsay Lohan thing too and all the videos. I love your site, I really do, but give it a rest for respect to his family. All these updates and hearsay. Can't you just do a remembrance post and leave it at that? I know he is a celebrity and celebrities are in the limelight, but we aren't talking Britney Spears walking around with a British accent, we are talking about a HUMAN BEING who has sadly passed away at a young age. Please, stop with the Heath whirlwind and give his family some respect.
