One of the Big Apple’s billionaire landlords urged Mayor Eric Adams to make the city’s crime problem his top priority on Thursday.
The Partnership for New York City hosted the summit at KKR’s offices in Hudson Yards. Partnership for New York CEO Kathryn Wylde said the meeting remained “upbeat” despite the serious subject matter. Wylde said Griffin expressed confidence in Adams’s effort to lower crime to avoid the fate suffered by Chicago — from where Citadel and other firms fled over safety fears.Adams was receptive to Griffin’s remarks and described steps the city was already taking to combat crime.
Griffin’s warning to Adams comes weeks after his firm unveiled plans to develop a brand-new “1.7 million square foot trophy office tower” in MidtownCitadel’s planned skyscraper will replace adjacent buildings at 350 Park Avenue, 40 East 52nd Street and 39 East 51st Street and eventually house all of its New York City-based employees. The company has approximately 1,500 workers in New York and approximately 4,000 workers globally.
