Test your knowledge of the New York home base of Donald Trump's real estate business.
"[T]he Trump Organization still owns properties in 19 cities across the globe," an article by Wesley Yin reminds us. "New York, of course, is where he is most prominent, with no less than nine properties in his name (typically in large, gaudy, gold letters)," adds Yin while introducing a typically Curbed-style map of properties owned by the Republican nominee for President of the United States.
The map/tour of New York begins and ends in Manhattan, starting with the Trump International Hotel & Tower New York, located on Columbus Circle. Then there's Trump Tower, which, as Yin notes, is made up of mostly absent owners, "as fewer than half of the condos are primary residences."
Many more variations on the Trump [Ad Noun Here] formula follow, along with a steady stream of the snark Curbed is famous for in its own right.
