Speaking of Volumes

January 22, 2012 • Quotidian • 1 • |

A few back of the envelope calculations for a piece I’m working on led to the to following.

Lady Blunt Strad $16 million or $44,000/cubic inch

Bonjour Strad cello $6 million or $1100/cubic inch

5-storey Upper East Side townhouse $23 million or $0.18/cubic inch

I make no editorial comment other than only one comes with an elevator.
What do you make of it?

    Next step is to factor in the cost of insuring said “volumes”.
