#4A landmark skyscraper held as a tenancy-in-common, a forced partition sale, a rouge bidder, ... some lawyers are having a field day with this.

The Continental, the fictional hotel where John Wick stays, is Delmonico's downtown.

Edit - it's actually another building used for exterior shots, although Delmonico's was used for some interior shots.

#6I didn't realize the Flatiron Building was vacant and apparently in shambles. This guy bought it for 190 mil but from the article it requires another 100 mil to be renovated.

Ah. I always thought it was the Flatiron.

#8But Multi-Millionaires need to actually pay for things like real estate and taxes? Is it not enough an honor for something to be owned by the princely class?

Once he's done with it it will require even more extensive renovation, though.

I worked in that building about 10 years ago and old copper pipes running water were directly above server racks. The corner offices facing the park were nice, but everything else was significantly worse than any other building I’ve worked in because of age, low ceilings, etc. I would guess 100 mil is a low estimate.
