Cottages in Muskoka don't come dreamier than this one on Lake Joseph - the celebrity-filled enclave where even  Cindy Crawford  has a vacation property. High Point , as it's referred to, is situated on a huge granite rock, giving it sweeping views of its surroundings. Since it faces west, it's also privy to glorious Muskoka sunsets, all for  $8.5 million . Beginning lakeside, High Point has an 800 foot waterfront.

The gleaming towers that are now in fashion in Manhattan are edging out yesterday’s “it” buildings, attracting the high-end buyers who might otherwise have bought their predecessors, even when those “old” buildings debuted relatively recently. Which new developments are taking place of the old? This month,  The Real Deal  paired five new Manhattan construction projects with headline-generating buildings of 15 years vintage or less.

And in the eyes of a buyer, newer often equates to better. “Developers can make the new model even better based on what they know to be successful,” said Douglas Elliman broker Jessica Coh...
