From the May issue: Legendary New York City newspaper columnist Jimmy Breslin used to put out a year-end list of people who had wronged him.
Dubbed “People I’m Not Talking to Next Year,” the list, which ran in the 1960s, included people like “the big shot maitre d’ at the 21 Club” who didn’t let him in, and Pepe, a bar owner who was trying to extort Breslin with an inflated bar tab. [more]

The central theme of The Real Deal‘s May issue, which went live today, is competition. Adam Pincus covers the battle for anchor office tenants on Manhattan’s far West Side, which has recently seen the rise of major projects in addition to Related Companies’ North and South towers at Hudson Yards, Extell Development’s One Hudson Yards, and Brookfield Office Properties’ Manhattan West. In TRD‘s annual ranking of the borough’s biggest residential firms, Katherine Clarke zeroes in on the three problems that Manhattan’s brokerages are facing: inventory, inventory, inventory. And C.J. Hughes analyzes which Manhattan neighborhoods have been hit hardest by the inventory squeeze. [more]

From the April issue: “Newspapers should have no friends,” publisher Joseph Pulitzer once said. That’s what I’ve learned in my 10 years since founding The Real Deal.
Sure, I’ve formed a lot of great relationships and met a lot of great people, who I want to thank for helping feed The Real Deal’s success. But being a magazine publisher can be a lonely job. [more]

From the April issue: The Real Deal started publishing at the beginning of an epic real estate boom back in 2003, so it’s fitting that as we celebrate our 10th anniversary this month, another boom looks to be on the way.
Back then, right before our first issue came out, publisher Amir Korangy, marketing director Yoav Barilan and I watched the “shock and awe” bombing of Baghdad on CNN at a Park Avenue South bar while discussing the magazine’s direction. (I wrote a freelance story for the first issue. I guess Amir liked it, because I was promoted to editor-in-chief after that.) [more]
From the April issue: The New York City real estate market has been a developing story since The Real Deal launched in 2003. When the magazine first began publishing, New York was still recovering (emotionally and economically) from the 2001 World Trade Center attacks. In fact, the country had gone to war in Iraq less than a month before TRD’s first issue hit the presses.
A lot has happened since then — from an unprecedented economic boom (marked by close-to-free credit and high-flying condos) to the worst economic downturn in 80 years. [more]
Covering the world’s most electric real estate market for the last decade has been a privilege, and a rush. This month, in The Real Deal’s special tenth-anniversary issue, Tom Acitelli looks back at the stories that shaped New York City real estate over the last ten years. Hayley Kaplan checks in on the fate of some of the marquee projects started during the city’s real estate boom. Hiten Samtani lifts the veil on the abrupt exit of Michael Fascitelli, the CEO of mega-REIT Vornado. [more]
