Miki Naftali’s Naftali Group may be working to gather an assemblage of properties on the Upper East Side.
The Midtown-based developer picked up the four-story, 3,500-square-foot townhouse at 235 East 72nd Street, paying $10.1 million to Donna and Hayward Pressman, who bought the property back in 1996 for $745,0000.

Toll Brothers, also seeking to build an assemblage in the area, reportedly bid on the property as well, according to the Post.
