История на успеха
Владельцем недвижимости был некто Тамир Сапир. Когда Сапир приехал в США, он стал работать таксистом, однако через некоторое время открыл собственный магазин электроники. Дела пошли неплохо, и вскоре он наладил контракт с нефтяными компаниями по поставкам электроники. Благодаря бизнесу и грамотным вкладам в недвижимость, к 2002 году Тамир стал миллиардером.
He took a job processing emigration applications for Soviet Jews and in 1973, he immigrated to Israel with his wife around the time of the Yom Kippur War. He changed his last name to Sapir while in Israel[citation needed] and moved to the United States first to Louisville, Kentucky where he learned English and worked as a bus driver, janitor and a loader; and then to New York City where he worked as a taxicab driver. He then opened an electronics store with fellow immigrant Sam Kislin catering primarily to Russian clientele.
Sapir made contacts with the Soviet contingent to the United Nations in New York, and started trading electronics, clothing, and footwear for Soviet oil and oil products which he then sold to American companies. Investing the profits in Manhattan real estate in the 1990s, which was then in a slump, he became a billionaire by 2002. Sapir has been referred to as America's "billionaire cabbie".
