Following persistent speculation surrounding Kent Swig’s purported marital troubles, the embattled developer and his wife have filed for divorce, according to the Post. Swig, whose Sheffield57 is widely considered one of the biggest condo conversion failures in New York City history, has reportedly been banned from the Park Avenue co-op unit he and soon-to-be-ex Liz Macklowe, daughter of developer Harry Macklowe, shared. Macklowe has also listed a $6.9 million East End property — with Sotheby’s International Realty, rather than Swig-connected Brown Harris Stevens.
