Extell’s $34.9M Air Rights Deal Adds Another Layer to Manhattan’s Costliest Supertall Assemblage

Gary Barnett's Extell Development has quietly assembled one of the most expensive pre-construction real estate packages in New York City history, adding $34.9 million in air rights to the capital already committed to its planned 1,162-foot supertall at 655 Madison Avenue — a tower that, if completed as designed, would become the first supertall skyscraper on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

Inside the Zabar family’s little-known $30M NYC real estate empire

New Yorkers know Zabar’s for its smoked salmon, bagels and signature orange-and-white shopping bags — but the family behind the beloved Upper West Side grocery store has another business hiding in plain sight: Manhattan real estate. Beyond its famous Broadway storefront, the Zabar family has ties to at least six residential buildings containing a combined 80 apartments, along with a stake in a commercial property that once generated nearly $5 million in annual rent. The little-known property holdings span several corporate entities and stretch beyond the family’s longtime home turf on the Upper West Side. Stanley Zabar helped build the family’s grocery and real estate empire. Robert Miller for NY Post And the man who helped build that portfolio was Stanley Zabar, the grocery chain’s longtime co-owner and financial mastermind, who died Monday at age 94 . While his older brother Saul, who died last year at 97 , became the public face of the family business, Stanley handled its financial and legal affairs — helping transform a modest smoked-fish counter founded by their parents in 1934 into a New York institution. Brothers Stanley (left) and Saul Zabar ran the iconic Upper West Side grocery business. Charles Wenzelberg/NY Post Stanley

Consider the Lobstermen Affected by New York’s Empire Wind

1. New York City — We have a new must-watch offshore wind lawsuit with potential implications for the entire sector — and this time, it’s from lobstermen seeking damages. In late October, a family of lobstermen sued Equinor in federal court claiming the company’s compensatory mitigation program is failing to adequately make up for alleged negative impacts to lobster fishing grounds in the New York Bight. According to the lawsuit, the wind project irreparably hurt fishing in previously trafficked waters. The suit also claims that Empire Wind construction destroyed lobster fishing pots and seeks at least $75,000 in damages as well as punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. The lawsuit is the first I have seen involving someone in aquaculture suing for damages over negative impacts of an already-constructed wind project, and it carries outsized implications as the Trump administration remands without vacatur the construction and operations plans for other offshore wind farms. This case is far from being decided, but that doesn’t matter: It is precisely the kind of complaint that Trump officials are likely to consider as they mull revisions to operational plans. An Equinor spokesman declined to comment on the case, telling me they don’t speak on pending
