Word was that Meg Ryan needed to sell her dramatically remodeled loft at 84 Mercer Street because she was a little strapped for cash. She got an offer on the $10.9 million unit (which is still under contract) and, well, instead of banking the cash, she went out and committed another predictable move for a real estate-a-holic.

Meg Ryan isn’t homeless in NYC.

Ryan (via her Third World Dog trust) is reportedly the buyer for a sponsor unit at the celebrity-laden building in Tribeca. The purchase was first reported by The Real Deal. Ryan’s June 6 closing on the $9.7 million unit showed she got a little discount. Final price was $9.39 million.

Her Tribeca interiors have a very particular and cool point of view, courtesy of CentraRuddy Architects.

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel just bought a $20 million penthouse; Harry Styles is also a new buyer there as is race car star Lewis Hamilton and Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds.
