Adam Driver’s $11.5 Million Standish Purchase In a closely watched Brooklyn Heights transaction, Adam Driver reportedly acquired three sixth-floor condominium units at the Standish for $11.5 million. Multiple reports placed the off-market purchase at 171 Columbia Heights in late June 2026, with some citing a June 10 closing.
