The New York Times reported Wednesday that residents of Trump Place on the Upper West Side of Manhattan have joined three other buildings in the neighborhood in stripping the president’s brassy five-letter name from their 46-story building in another sign that the brand is losing some of its appeal.
The move follows reports of losses at some of President Donald Trump’s golf courses, and decisions by several hotels that had licensed the president’s name to drop it.
After more than a quarter century, Trump Plaza will now be known only by its address, 200 Riverside Boulevard.
The name had become controversial among the building’s residents during Trump’s campaign and presidency. Owners in the 377-unit tower were worried about the resale value of their condos and also raised concerns about security in condo meetings. But potential legal and other costs of removing Trump’s name kept some from pushing harder for a change.
Then in May, a judge ruled that the Trump Organization was wrong in asserting a contract that obligated residents to keep the name. That freed the way for a formal vote and, in a poll that ended Oct. 10, nearly 70 percent of owners who voted said they wanted to change the name, according to the The New York Times .
The board estimated it would cost about $23,000 to remove the 20 letters from the building and wash the facade.
In addition to three other New York condos, Trump’s name has also been removed from hotels in Toronto, Manhattan’s Soho neighborhood and Panama City since he became president.
Snowflake Dummycrats!!!!
Bunch of fools! This will not make him No More president
Bunch of fools! This will not make him No More president
What a bunch of deranged Trump hater losers
I would also want it removed .
1) it’s irrelevant who is president . If it were Obama towers it would need tighter security and would be a pain in the neck too
2) yes trump is controversial. Doesn’t make it bad
disrespect for The Leader
Slowly but surely, America is becoming great again. One building at a time.
Not at all surprising that they voted to remove the Trump name since it has negative connotations. Who would want to see that name every day. The name Trump gets as much respect as the names Benedict Arnold, Charles Manson, David Duke.
LOL. How hated the Orange Yutz is, in the USA and globally (excepr in bloody Saudi Arabia, tyrannical N Korea and Tsar Pootin’s Russkie… feh
No problem, he can sell it to the Saudis, No Koreans etc.
Trump is the best president ever!!!
Fake news and propaganda against him will not change that fact.
We vote for Trump!
