[WATCH] Why New York’s Trump Tower is Totally Forbidden

2026-05-03T12:00:00-04:00

The video delves into the historical transformation of a prime location on Fifth Avenue in New York City, from the elegant Bonwit Teller Building to the iconic Trump Tower. Before its demolition in 1980, the Bonwit Teller Building, designed by Warren & Wetmore (also known for Grand Central Terminal), stood as a masterpiece of Art Deco elegance, featuring limestone facades and sculptural reliefs. The video traces the rise of Fifth Avenue from a residential street for titans like the Astor and Vanderbilt families to a bustling commercial corridor, highlighting the business acumen of Paul Bonwit, the German immigrant who established the high-end department store. Its eventual demise paved the way for Donald Trump's brazenly branded Trump Tower, designed by architect Der Scutt. The video explores the controversial demolition that destroyed priceless art, alleged labor violations during construction, and the tower's subsequent evolution from a symbol of opulent real estate to a powerful, divisive political monument, often serving as a backdrop for both supporters and protesters of Donald Trump.

2024-08-12T12:00:00-04:00

That’s according to a new study from real-estate data portal PropertyShark, which has crowned Hudson Yards on Manhattan’s far west side for the top spot with a median home sale price of $7.5 million. For nearly five years, this district — known for its shops, towering buildings and Vessel sculpture — has kept this privileged position in PropertyShark’s ranking.

What’s more, the current median of $7.5 million marks quite a rise from the $5.75 million median home sale price tallied in Hudson Yards last year. Still, PropertyShark adds, the number of deals for homes in the area fell year-over-year by 62%, marking one of the most significant annual sales drops among the city’s most expensive areas.
