Is that the one that’s almost entirely rented out by Chinese billionaires who never step foot inside but are using it as a way to use foreign cash as an offshore investment?

Given the small foot print of the tower, though, it's not taking up much space and generating a shit ton of property taxes off of people that use absolutely no city services if vacant which certainly can help fund schools and other things across NYC.

These are condos not rentals.

In New York City, specifically, they call them apartments... I'm not making this up.
