We told you last month that the co-creator of bilingual cartoon character <em>Dora the Explorer</em> <strong>Eric Weiner</strong> and wife <strong>Cherie Vogelstein</strong> had sold their home for $5.85 million. Hopefully Mr. Weiner has made a good cut of the cartoon franchise (<a href="http://www.slate.com/id/2121390/">which has reportedly raked in over $1 billion in revenue for Nickeloedeon</a>)  because he and Ms. Vogelstein have just spent <strong>$8.5 million</strong> on their new Upper West Side home.<!--more--></p>
<p>The 3,326-square-foot condo is located at the Laureate, a luxury condo at <strong>2150 Broadway</strong>. According to the listing, the five-bedroom, 4.5-bath home features a giant master bedroom with his-and-hers walk-in closets, a private balcony, and a huge five-fixture master bath with heated floors. <em>Que Bueno!</em></p>
<p>With walnut floors, a washer and dryer, a library and so-called "great room," Mr. Weiner and Ms. Vogelstein will certainly have room for their backpacks. And monkeys.</p>
<p>The highlight of the home is the 519-square-foot great room. Located "at the prow of the building," according to listing agent <strong>Shlomi Reuveni </strong>of <strong>Brown Harris Stevens</strong>, the giant space connects to a separate dining room and library. Mr. Reuveni could not immediately be reached for comment.</p>
<p>According to StreetEasy, the home was originally listed for $8.8 million.</p>

<p>Can your tot say “Sold” <em>en Espagnol</em>? <em>Dora the Explorer</em> co-creator <strong>Eric Weiner </strong>and wife, playwright <strong>Cherie Vogelstein</strong>, have sold their apartment at <strong>245 West 99th </strong>Street in the Extell-developed Ariel West condo building.<!--more--></p>
<p>Perhaps Mr. Weiner thought up ideas for the infernal Spanish-speaking preschooler while watching TV in his giant 626-square-foot living/diving room space. Or maybe, pondering the state of children’s programming, he created plots for the torturous tot while staring at the cityscape from one of his many ventanas. The view, according to <strong>Brown Harris Stevens</strong> brokers <strong>Lisa Lippman</strong> and <strong>Scott Moore</strong>, is one of the apartment’s main draws. So much so as to warrant an enthusiastic exclamation in the property listing: “Whether sunny or overcast, the helicopter-like views from this apartment are endless and AMAZING!,” the brokers write.</p>
<p>City records show a <strong>Matthew Rosen</strong> purchased the four-bedroom, 3.5-bath apartment for <strong>$5.285 million.</strong> Aside from the apartment’s walk-in closets, laundry room and oak floors, Mr. Rosen can watch the sun over the Hudson as he enjoys a nice hot <em>ducha</em> (that’s Spanish for shower) in the windowed master bath.</p>
<p>Hopefully, Mr. Rosen isn’t a smoker or is willing to kick the habit, however, because the elite Upper West Side building put the kibosh on lighting up last May, according to <em>The New York Times</em>.</p>
<p>City records show that Mr. Vogelstein and Ms. Weiner purchased the condo in 2008 for $4.475 million. The deed for the most recent sale shows that the couple has not ventured far from their former stomping grounds, listing the Laureate at 2150 Broadway as their current address.</p>
