A New York City real estate holiday wish list

All Post columnist Steve Cuozzo wants for Christmas is more progress at the World Trade Center site. In his year-end holiday wish list, Cuozzo asks Santa for “an end to bond market turmoil so Larry Silverstein can place $1.3 billion in Liberty Bonds to ensure that 4 World Trade Center is finished on time in 2013” and a finalized deal between the Port Authority and the Durst Organization at 1 World Trade Center, where he also wouldn’t mind another major private sector tenant commitment. Among the items on his wish list for the rest of Manhattan: “another Google-size office building purchase,” “a resolution to the mess at the former Drake Hotel site,” and “an iPhone app with real-time updates on Joe Moinian’s and Kent Swig’s mortgage status at various buildings just so we can stop annoying their publicists every week.” [Post]
