The Trump Organization signed a deal to construct a skyscraper in Australia that will immediately become the tallest building Down Under.
The 91-story tower, which will cost just over $1 billion to build, will loom over the Gold Coast in the state of Queensland, per a Feb. 23 report from NBC News.
“Australia’s tallest building will be a Trump Tower, right in the middle of Surfers Paradise — it’s great for Queensland tourism, and fantastic for Australia,” Altus Property Group, the company developing the property, said in a statement.
The building will include more than 270 apartments, shops, a beach club, and a pool, as well as a “six-star resort hotel,” per NBC News.
The tower will also come emblazoned with the family name of the current President of the United States.
“It won’t have a Four Seasons or Ritz Carlton brand above the front door, but it will say ‘Trump.’ And that means it is a no-expense-spared, highest-possible-quality building — the best in the world.”
Eric Trump, the son of President Donald Trump and the executive vice president of The Trump Organization, voiced his excitement for the project on social media.
“I am so proud to announce what will soon be the tallest building in Australia — Trump International Hotel & Tower Gold Coast,” he wrote.
“This marks our first venture into Australia — an extraordinary country in every respect — and I couldn’t be more excited to help shape its iconic skyline forever. More to come…”
A description on the Trump Hotels website said the building “redefines beachfront sophistication with world-class amenities, iconic design, and uninterrupted Gold Coast views.”
David Young, the CEO of Altus, said he cold-called Ivanka Trump back in 2007 in the hopes of securing the deal, according to a report from The Independent.
Nearly two decades later, the project has finally come to fruition.
“Importantly, the building is Australian-owned and Australian-built. It is an Altus subsidiary, Altus Resorts Pty Ltd, that makes the decisions on the fit-out, within the Trump design requirements,” Young added.
The developer said the deal was signed on Feb. 14 at Mar-a-Lago.

I’m never going to stay in a room above the 3rd floor where I can escape with a rope and hammer that I always pack....

I read in "The Art of the Deal" that he liked using two hinges instead of three to save money.

If that really happens, and ‘our’ Donald Trump has his name emblazoned on top of the highest tower in Australia, it will be only short period of time before the Libs make it their life mission to take that name down, by any means necessary.
So, hopefully, all that is taken into consideration by the designers of this structure. They will obsess over it. Watch and see.

I read in "The Art of the Deal" that he liked using two hinges instead of three to save money. That may be. But I remember hearing from a buddy of mine who was a first-class builder that the only two justification for using three hinges on a regular room door were:
- The door material was so heavy that you had to distribute the weight across three.
- The door material would tend to warp over time, so the center hinge was to minimize the effect of the warpage on the fit against the frame.
I'm not a builder; I'm just passing along what I've heard.

Let’s see...
Trump Tower vs Obamy Tower and Library...
Sure makes it a hard choice, while deciding which one to visit...
