BROOKLYN HEIGHTS— Actors John Krasinski and Emily Blunt sold a ninth-floor apartment in their Brooklyn Heights building for $6.5 million, adding to the couple’s real estate moves at the Standish, a former hotel converted into luxury residences.

A trust tied to the actors sold the apartment in an off-market deal in June, according to property records made public Wednesday.

The buyer used a limited liability company, which obscured the purchaser’s identity.
