CHRYSLER BUILDING ON THE BLOCK - New York Post: "Sources say the super-rich Abu Dhabi Investment Council is negotiating an $800 million deal for a 75 percent stake in the Art Deco treasure that has defined the Midtown skyline since 1930" Did anyone else think instantly of the Garfield cartoon where he is constantly (or at least he was) trying to send Nermal and Oodi to Abu Dhabi???
Well now we get to send them a landmark instead.
So what the heck is going on here?
This is the second landmark building I've heard of them buying. Remember how everyone was joking about a decade back that the Japanese were buying all the golf courses in America? Now the mid-east is getting a hold of our building?
Wow .... soon it will be tough to tell where other countries end and America begins....
And I can't see McCain or Obama doing much about it.
It will of course mean -- less jobs for us.
