- Title
Review: Capital City: Gentrification and the Real Estate State by Samuel Stein.
- Authors
Gale, Dennis E.
- Abstract
On the other hand, one could argue that the Trump family empire is about as characteristic of the New York real estate state as Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme was typical of the practices of New York investment advisors. Stein argues that the real estate sector has assumed an even greater role in New York's economy than was the case before deindustrialization accelerated capital flight and the loss of thousands of blue-collar jobs. Stein's decision to devote 39 pages (pp. 116-155) to an intensive account of the Trump family's multigenerational dealings in New York real estate will likely please some readers and puzzle others.
