It should come as no surprise that the same millionaires and billionaires who are known for snapping up real estate around New York City are also the owners of ever-expanding art collections.
Real estate news blog the Real Deal has profiled seven local moguls—Harry Macklowe (400 Madison Avenue, 540 Madison Avenue), Sheldon Solow (9 West 57th Street), Jerry Speyer (Rockefeller Center, Chrysler Building), Edward Minskoff (101 Warren Street, World Financial Center), Daniel Brodsky (Metropolitan Museum of Art chairman), Francis Greenburger (CEO of Time Equities), and of course, Aby Rosen.
“Whatever the particular occupation may be, the collector becomes something of an addict,” critic Judd Tully told the Real Deal.
