"We buy for permanent investment," he declares, "and can only sell a property with 100% consent of the investing partners." Among his plans for the Empire State: to open a luxury restaurant beneath the highly profitable ($2,000,000 a year) observation deck, plant trees around the base of the building, brighten its cavernous lobbies, and complete the air conditioning of its 1,750,000 sq. ft. of rentable space, which currently has a highly...
