I saw a news article yesterday when I was digging, about how the sale looked like "a trap" that was set up to get twice the $ per square ft as any similar previous sale, right at the height of the real estate bubble. Or something like that.
Lost the sauce. Maybe another anon will see it and link it.
Yes, there was some digging on Tishman family in the breads around that time.
E.g. >>838501
Also, apparently the Vanderbilt's at one time owned a house at that location:
>>838461
"Kushner Companies bought the tower in 2007 for a then-record $1.8 billion and sold a 49.5 percent share to Vornado in 2011. In January of last year, Jared, who helped manage President Trump’s campaign and serves as a White House senior adviser, sold his personal stake in the tower to a family trust."

"Vornado Realty Trust, which owns a 49.5 percent stake in the building, has made it clear that it wants to sell its share, and according to the Wall Street Journal, there’s at least one interested party: Kushner Companies."
