It's not like he needs the money...

Maybe it's more about doing what you love. Look at Silverstein and Macklowe. Macklowe is sailing around the world, but still found time to put a major new skyscraper (Tower Fifth) in motion. He certainly didn't have to, but sometimes your passion is what keeps you going. And God bless them. I hope I'm still going at that age, and not leaving life to the younger generation.

Cafe Classico and Great American Health Bar argued in a Manhattan state court filing that their landlord is trying to unfairly oust them to make way for a “major” new building.

I'm sure the prospect of putting up a new building in NY or assisting with one is a driving factor for any developer who likes the game.
