UJoseph Chetrit, kunene. Ngomnye uLwesihlanu wehlobo ngo1994, uRon Cohen, omnye wabarhwebi abaphambili kurhwebo kwisiXeko saseNew York, wachola umnxeba eofisini yakhe eInsignia / ESG yakudala, eyandulela i-mega-brokerage yanamhlanje i-Richard Richard Ellis. Indoda egama linguJoseph Chetrit yayibanda ingambizi malunga nesakhiwo seofisi esinemigangatho eli-16 e-19 West 44th Street esithengiswa ngumthengi kaMnu. Uxolo, utshilo uMnu. Cohen. Asisebenzi nabantu esingabaziyo. He hung up wabuyela emsebenzini. Kwimizuzu kamva, amadoda amathathu angena kwiofisi kaMnu Cohen. YayinguJoseph Chetrit, utata wakhe uSimon, kunye nomntakwabo uJacques. Ewe, ngoku uyasazi, uYosefu wathi-yinyani.Kwiintsuku nje ezimbalwa, uMnu.Cohen wayeseConnecticut, edibana nomthengi wakhe kwaye encedisa umrhwebi ukuba ibe yintoni isivumelwano sikaMnu Chetrit sokuthengisa izindlu nomhlaba eMelika: i-13 yezigidi zeedola kwisakhiwo esikwere -enyawo ezingama-231,928 phakathi kwendlela yesihlanu neyesithandathu . Umnumzana Cohen uzakuqhubeka nokusebenza nee-Chetrits-uJoseph, abantakwabo abathathu kunye notata wakhe-kwizivumelwano ezininzi, apha nase-Philadelphia. Njengabo bonke abakwimizi-mveliso yokuthengisa izindlu nomhlaba ekwenziwe udliwanondlebe ngeli bali, Mnu Cohen, ngoku noJones Lang LaSalle, wathetha ngoMnu Chetrit ngokuncoma, epeyinta umfanekiso womntu othetha-thethana onobuqili nopholileyo: Ungumntu okrelekrele, okrelekrele. Omnye umthombo: Unengcwangu, kodwa akakho rhabaxa. Nomnye: andingekhe ndithi wayengumntu onguhlobo A. Wayenobukho-andingekhe ndithi bubukho bomlomo. Okokugqibela, enye: I-Chetrit ayibhekiseli ekubeni kwiphepha eliphambili lephepha. Endaweni yoko, uyaziwa ukuba yinxalenye yelo qela labanobungqongqo beNew York real estate moguls elumkele ingqalelo efunyenwe nguDouglas Durst noBill Rudin. Umnumzana Chetrit unezinto ezifanayo kakhulu namadoda afana noLloyd Goldman, mhlawumbi oyena mntu ungumnini wesakhiwo sabucala, othatha indlela engaphantsi ukujonga uninzi lwezakhiwo, kunye noRuby Schron, olawula ubukumkani bakhe obuqikelelwa kwizigidi ezili-15-square ukusuka eBrooklyn. , ngoncedo loonyana abaliqela. Bajongana nezithunzi, umxholo wokuhlakulela ii-auras zobungangamsha kunye noloyiko, ukuvela kuphela ngokungathandabuzi. Ngobuchwephesha, uMnu Chetrit kunye namalungu osapho lwakhe, isizalwane saseMorocco esenza imali yabo yokuqala ngelaphu, zange baphendule kwizicelo ezininzi zodliwanondlebe. Kodwa kwindoda ebonakala ngathi ayikuthandi ukukhanya, ihlala inyusa iipropathi eziphezulu kakhulu, kubandakanya esinye sezona zakhiwo zidumileyo emhlabeni, eyayisakuba yiSears Tower. Kutshanje, ufumene enye yezona ndawo zibalaseleyo eNew York, ihotele yaseChelsea, nge- $ 80 yezigidi ngoMeyi. Ngelixa uMnu Chetrit kunye nosapho lwakhe kubonakala ngathi bahambe kule minyaka mithathu idlulileyo bengakhange baphazanyiswe, isivumelwano saseChelsea sibeka ukukhanya kwindawo eqinileyo ejongene neengxaki ezininzi njengoko imeko yezoqoqosho ibonakala iyehla eNew York. Okwangoku ujongene nenkonzo ekhethekileyo (umngxuma wokuma ekuchazeni) kwisakhiwo esikhulu se-dolophu, ukuthengiswa ngokukhawuleza kwesitokhwe kwezona zinto zibalulekileyo kuye, kunye neziphumo zomthetho wocalucalulo ovela kumqeshwa wangaphambili obonelela ngeenkcukacha zobomi ngaphakathi kwe-Chetrits 'orbit . UJOSEPH CHETRIT wavela kwiminyaka engama-20 eyadlulayo eNew York, umzalwana wathumela eMelika ukuya kuqhubela phambili ubutyebi bosapho, okokuqala kwizakhiwo ezinamagumbi aseBrooklyn naseQueens, emva koko kwimpahla yentengiso kuyo yonke indawo, enyuka phakathi kwiminyaka elishumi edlulileyo ukuya kwincopho Ukuthengiswa kwezindlu kweli lizwe. Waqala amatye eMelika njengomngenisi elizweni / umthumeli wempahla kumazwe angaphandle. Ebutsheni bowe-1990, walivuma ityala elinye lolwaphulo-mthetho lokugweba amasiko kwaye wagwetywa iminyaka emithathu elingwa. I-slap-slap inokuthi ijike ingqalelo yayo kwinto ebaluleke ngakumbi kunelaphu. Waqala ngeendawo zokuhlala ezingaphandle, ejikeleza ipotifoliyo eyayithengisa i-70 yezigidi zeedola ekupheleni komsila we-90s. Ngaloo mali, waguqukela kwiipropathi zorhwebo, eqala nge-West 44th Street tower ngo-1994. Ukutyhubela elishumi ukuya kwelilandelayo, njengoko intengiso yearhente yokuthengisa izindlu nomhlaba yahamba, uMnu. Chetrit wathabatha ubukhosi bakhe babususa kwisikwere esingama-400,000- indawo yokugcina iinyawo ePhilly ukuya eGiannini Indawo eLos Angeles, indawo yokuzalwa yento eyaba yiBhanki yaseMelika. UMnu Chetrit uthenge ephantsi, wathengisa phezulu kwaye ephindaphinda wenza ukubulala. Ngethuba lokubaleka, waxela ukuba wenza amakhulu ezigidi kwaye wayenemali eninzi kuye. Omnye umrhwebi ukhumbula umnumzana Chetrit ebonisa ubungqina bakhe kumthengisi onokumbonisa ukujonga kwakhe ibhalansi yeakhawunti: $ 100 yezigidi. Ukwabikwa ukuba wasebenzisa imali evela e-Wachovia-kodwa, ubukhulu becala, ibubutyebi bosapho kunye neqabane lakhe. Ngo-2004, igama losapho latyalwa ngaphezulu kwengqungquthela yezindlu nomhlaba waseMntla Melika. Ngentlawulo ephantsi ye- $ 30 yezigidi, uMnu Chetrit ukhokele ukuthengwa kwe- $ 840 yezigidi ze-Sears Tower ezinemigangatho eli-110 eChicago kunye namaqabane aquka uLloyd Goldman, uJoseph Moinian noJeffrey Feil, umnini-ndawo waseNew York. (Umnumzana Feil wenqabile ukuphawula ngeli bali; uMnumzana Goldman khange afumaneke; kwaye, ngesithethi, uMnu.Moinian wanikezela ingxelo eqinisekileyo malunga neqabane lakhe. Iqela lobunini liya kutshintsha igama lenqaba ekuqaleni kuka-2009, emva I-inshurensi yaseBritane yomrhwebi i-inshurensi uWillis watyikitya isivumelwano esikhulu.) Isivumelwano sanika uMnu. Chetrit incasa yakhe yokuqala kumajelo eendaba, kodwa akabonakali eyifumene imnandi kakhulu: Kuzo zonke izibambiso ezenziwa kurhwebo lweSears Tower, akukho nanye evelayo. Ukuqulatha udliwanondlebe, okanye kwanokuhlomla ngefowuni, kuMnu Chetrit ongafumanekiyo. Umjongi Ekugqibeleni wafunda ukuba wazalelwa eMorocco ngo-1960; uthetha iilwimi ezine-isiArabhu, isiHebhere, isiFrentshi nesiNgesi; Utshatile noNancy Chetrit, kwaye banabantwana abane; wenza ubuJuda bobuOthodoki (owayesakuba ngurabi wakhe wachaza uMnu. Chetrit njengomntu onesisa nobashushu kakhulu); kwaye kutshanje uye wafuduka kwindlu enkulu ese-Engelwood, N.J., esiya esixekweni. Kodwa ubomi bakhe bujikeleza ikakhulu kwizivumelwano. Ngokwe-boom yokuthengiswa kwezindlu ngo-2007, uMnu Chetrit's sprees were titanic even by the frothy standards of the age. KwisiXeko saseNew York kuphela kulo nyaka, ngokokuhlalutya okwenziwe ngu Umsebenzi wokwenene , Wathenga iSakhiwo se-oyile esidala e-26 Broadway nge-225 yezigidi zeedola; Uluhlu lwezakhiwo ezisetyenzisiweyo kwi-855-871 Sixth Avenue yeedola ezili-140 zeedola; ikhaya langaphambili labongikazi kwi-1760 Third Avenue ngeedola ezingama-80 zezigidi; I-N.Y.U. izakhiwo kwi-90 kunye ne-100 yoBuThathu Indawo kwi-64 yezigidi zeedola; isakhiwo seeofisi esinemigangatho engama-21 kwi-989 Sixth Avenue yezigidi ezingama-49 zeedola; isakhiwo seofisi kwi-240 West 37th Street; izindlu zasedolophini ezintandathu ezikwisitalato i-110-120 East 76th Street; kunye neepropathi ezintathu kwiMetropolitan Avenue eWilliamsburg. Wathengisa nendlu endala ye Iindaba Zemihla ngemihla , ebizwa ngokuba yi-Death Star e-450 West 33rd Street, nge-700 yezigidi zeedola; kunye neZiko leMidlalo yaMazwe ngaMazwe yakudala kwi-200 yeFifth Avenue kunye ne-1107 Broadway, ngaphezulu kwe- $ 700 yezigidi. Lilonke, wenza phantse i-2 yezigidigidi kurhwebo. Umfutho wawubonakala ungenakunqandeka. IBALI-15 lendaba i-200 FIFTH Avenue kunye nommelwane wayo nge-skywalk, ibali le-161 1107 Broadway, yayiyeyona nxalenye ye-20 yenkulungwane ye-American industry. UHasbro noMattel babeneeofisi apho, kwaye isakhiwo soToyit Fair sonyaka satsala amakhulu abathengisi. UMnu Chetrit wakugqiba konke oko. Ekuqaleni kuka-2005, iqela lakhe lathenga izakhiwo nge-355 yezigidi zeedola. Ngokunikwa indawo engaphaya kweMadison Square Park kunye nenyaniso yokuba izindlu zaseManhattan zazinonyaka ophelileyo, okokuqala ngqa, ziqale ukuthengisa ngomndilili weedola ezili-1 ngeenyawo zenyawo, wayecwangcise uguquko lwekhondomu ngowama-200 wesihlanu. Kuqala, abo baqeshisayo bezinto zokudlala kwakuza kufuneka bahambe — nangona bengakhange balwe. Amaninzi amangalela uMnu. Chetrit, etyhola ngokuhlukumeza: iphepha langasese alitshintshiswanga kwiindawo zokuhlambela i-A.C yanqunyanyiswa kwiindawo zokuphembelela nakwiipaseji; iilifti ezininzi zavalwa. Ngokwe- Iposi iNew York Ibali ngexesha elinomsindo kwiRoy Land, ijaji yaseManhattan yathi ngexesha lokumanyelwa kwetyala: Kumaxesha akudala, babedla ngokuthumela abantu ukuba babethe ubumenemene ebantwini [ukubakhupha]. Sikudlulile okuncinci kodwa akuninzi njengoko ndingathanda. Yayingumjikelo wokuqala kaMnu Chetrit weendaba ezimbi eNew York. Nangona kunjalo, wakwazi ukuhlala ikakhulu ezithunzini de wazothula zombini izakhiwo nge-715 yezigidi zeedola ngo-2007. (Egcina umxholo jikelele, uDavid Jaroslawicz, igqwetha labaqeshi bezinto zokudlala, wathetha kakuhle kuphela ngoMnu Chetrit xa wafikayo Umjongi : Uthethathethwano olomeleleyo-xa sixhawula izandla, waligcina ilizwi lakhe… Wayengangxoli kwaye engavumi.) I-Toy Centre fiasco inokuba yayiyeyona ndawo inika uMnumzana Chetrit, kodwa, njengokuba uLehman Brothers wayetsala uqoqosho phantsi, Kubonakala ngathi imozulu elandelayo ilungile kunenkoliso. Umnumzana Moinian, iqabane lakhe ngamanye amaxesha, wajongana nengxaki yamatyala kwizakhiwo ezininzi. UKent Swig, uHarry noBilly Macklowe, uTamir no-Alex Sapir, nkqu noo-Speyers (bona: iStuyTown Foreclosure) bajongana neengxaki zeepropathi eziphezulu ngo-2008 nango-2009. Kubonakala, nangona kunjalo, ukuba uMnu. mva nje kwiziphumo zayo. Isitalato sakhe esingu-123 uWilliam Street, esinemigangatho engama-27 edolophini edolophini eyafunyanwa ngoJulayi ka-2005, yangena kwinkonzo ekhethekileyo ngoMeyi walo nyaka, inezigidi ezingama-79.6 zeedola kumatyala angahlawulwanga, ngokutsho kwenkampani yophando iReal Capital Analytics. Isitalato i-Beekman esisihlanu, inqaba enemigangatho eyi-10, ekwindawo yedolophu, sele ichaziwe ngaphambili. Ekuqaleni kukaJuni, kwakhona, iChetrit Group kunye namaqabane ayo eWillis (née Sears) Tower babhengeza ukuba bajonge ukuthatha elinye iqabane-okanye bathengise i-icon ngokupheleleyo, bayeke indebe kaMnu Chetrit eqaqambe kakhulu. Kwakhona ngoJuni, yena kunye namaqabane amabini, kubandakanya uYair Levy-umphuhlisi wasekhaya mhlawumbi owaziwa kakhulu ngokubetha uMnu.Swig ngebhakethi lomkhenkce ngethuba leengxoxo-baxhasa ukuthengisa iBath Bath & Beyond kwisakhiwo nge-620 Sixth. Okokugqibela, abazalwana baseChetrit kutshanje bagqiba ityala lokucalula nomntu owayesakuba ngumqeshwa owayetyhola ukuba uqeshiwe kuba wayengumJuda kodwa kamva wabekelwa bucala kuba abaChetrits bafumanisa ukuba wayengenguye u-Orthodox.
I-Chelsea. NJENGOKO ICHELSEA HOTEL, eyona nto iphezulu kuthengwa nguMnu Chetrit ukusukela ngeWillis Tower ngo-2004, akukho mntu ulindele ukuba ihambe ngendlela yeToy Centre, indawo ebonakala ngathi ayipheli yamatyala ephela ngokuthengiswa kwayo. Ngapha koko, umrhwebi osebenze noMnu Chetrit uthi uhlala enomdla wokuyigcina ihotele. Usenokuyicoca indalo edumileyo ye-ramshackle eyaqala ngo-1883, ongeze indawo kumgangatho osezantsi ngokuphelisa ukugcinwa okanye ngokuhlaziya amagumbi ukubasusa kumgangatho wabo. UGene Kaufman, owaziwa kakhulu ngokusebenza namakhonkco ehotele anje ngeHoliday Inn, iya kujonga naluphi na utshintsho . Ukuqala kwam ukuhamba ngeChetrit ehotele, wayifumana kwangoko, utshilo uDoug Harmon, umrhwebi ophambili kunye ne-Eastdil ekhuselweyo othengise ihotele kwaye ophethe i-1.9 yezigidi zeedola ukuthengisa kufutshane ne-111 ye-8th Avenue kwiGoogle. Unobuhle obunomdla kunye netalente yokuguqula nokumisa kwakhona zonke iintlobo ezahlukeneyo zezindlu nomhlaba. Kodwa yipowder keg yesakhiwo, kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo ayizukugcina igama likaMnu Chetrit ngaphandle kwamaphepha. Umzekelo nje omnye — kwisiphithiphithi sokugxothwa komphathi wexesha elide uStanley Bard ngo-2007, umphathi omtsha wabiza iqela lebhombu le-NYPD ukujonga ipakethe ekrokrisayo eyathunyelwa kuye; yajika yayintloko yentlanzi. Ngokomthombo, akukho sibhengezo malunga nesiphelo seChelsea phantsi kukaMnu Chetrit kulindeleke kulo nyaka wekhalenda, ngokungathandabuzekiyo oya kugcina intelekelelo kumaphephandaba iphila kakhulu. Okwangoku, ihleli njengesiqhelo kwisitalato i-West 23rd, ebomvu-gazi kunye ne-eccentric, intsingiselo yakutshanje ebandakanya umntu ongaqondakaliyo osuka eMorocco.
