Justin Lin, who directed the “Fast and the Furious” films, has bought actor-director-producer Vincent Gallo’s penthouse in downtown L.A. for $2.6 million.

The four-level loft features exposed brick walls, floating staircases and an in-unit elevator. There are two bedrooms and 21/2 bathrooms in the 4,300-square-foot open plan space. Three outdoor living areas add 3,100 square feet of space.

The penthouse in the former National Biscuit Co. building was once leased to actor Nicolas Cage.

Lin is working on “The Fast and Furious 6,” which is planned for release next year.

Gallo starred in such independent films as “Essential Killing” (2010) and “Tetro” (2009) and will star this year in “La Leggenda di Kaspar Hauser.”
