Ivanka Trump, vice president of Development and Acquisition at the Trump Organization, notes, “Downtown Manhattan is a burgeoning luxury market of high-profile developments, and we’ll be adding to that mix this fall with the launch of Trump Soho Hotel Condominium New York. With this building we seek to remain true to the young and hip aesthetic that defines downtown, while simultaneously delivering a building so well-appointed that it rivals the best of its Uptown competition.”
