The state of NY should be interested in this one if the feds aren’t...

Sounds like a property tax dodge to me.

Property tax dodge sounds logical...but why is Bloomberg so adamant about this location? And why would he overlook this financial irregularity? Unless he is in on the deal...

I thought %5million for that piece of land was a little ridiculous

I was puzzled by that price, too, even in a down market. The name of Pomerantz’ widow, who was the final owner who sold for such a low price, is Kukiko Mitani. This sounds to me like a Japanese name, so she’s probably not a Muslim. In that case, there must be some other angle, perhaps, as suggested, a tax dodge of some kind.

All that needs happen is some enterprising AG dig around and see if the widow deposited cash somewhere at the time of the sale. Money hides,it never disappears(heard that on a t.v. show). That will give the apologists like Bloomberg And zero the cover they need to reverse course.

Names are irrelevant in islam.
Their names change w/o going through the normal format that civilized people use because our laws are superseded by islamic law.
Just a small point.

They do it all the time in foreign countries, put a low figure on the deeds price that is taxed and the rest gets bunged under the table.
That extra cash will have been bunged in some swiss bank account somewhere or in the caymans.
It smells to high heaven.
