Three NYC buildings to scrub Trump name

He’s fired — or at least his name is.

Three Upper West Side buildings that bear Trump’s name will soon be scrubbed of any trace of the president-elect, according to Equity Residential.

The company said that rental buildings at 140, 160 and 180 Riverside Blvd. will no longer be called “Trump Place.” Instead, they’ll be referred to by their street addresses.

“We are removing the [Trump] name on those buildings,” said Equity Residential spokesman Marty McKenna. “The decision was to brand the buildings with a more neutral building identity that will appeal to all current and future residents.”

The changes are already in motion, and everything that has the Trump name on it will be removed from the buildings.

On the other hand, he’s now the leader of the only superpower on Earth. Guess which one I’d pick?

I would say there’s a contract someplace governing this. And on the other hand it may be Trump’s choice. The media so loves to twist things.

Whoa! I see those buildings all the time from the Westside Highway. Is this allowed? Undoubtedly, his name was worked into the bargain when the buildings were first put up! Hope his children sue the ass off them. What ugly people.

““We took a number of issues under advisement, including input from residents,” McKenna said.

He added that the company had a contractual obligation to use Trump’s name, but that contract recently expired.”

I suspect they hope to prevent leftist vandalism by removing Trump’s name.

So what. Business is business. This is one of the ways that Trump, the businessman, gets past that and into President Trump, without hurting his past business associates.

From a business perspective, I understand it. For the owner, the buildings would probably be subject to continuous damage by those who lost.

The owner did say there’s a contractual obligation regarding the name. So don’t bet on it.

The Trump White House is more than a compensation. Personally I would be less eager to wrong the POTUS, especially this one, for petty reasons.

Well, he is living rent free in their heads.
