Ken Griffin's Citadel proceeds with NYC redevelopment amid mayor tax dispute

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Citadel, led by Ken Griffin, has decided to proceed with a significant redevelopment project at 350 Park Avenue in New York City, despite a public dispute with Mayor Zohran Mamdani over a new pied-à-terre tax. Griffin's company will be a 60% partner and anchor tenant in the project, signaling a commitment to remaining in Manhattan. This decision appears to be a reversal of earlier threats to withdraw from the city, which were made in response to the mayor's public criticism and the introduction of the tax targeting high-value secondary residences.
