A week into his bank fraud trial, Donald Trump late Thursday night dropped his oddly aggressive lawsuit against the judge overseeing the case—a move that had been seen as a last-minute scramble to avert a potential unraveling of the tycoon’s real estate empire.
But that happened anyway when Justice Arthur F. Engoron concluded the former president was a serial liar who faked the size of his buildings and value of his properties for years, ordering the family business’ licenses to be revoked.
Except all NYC places do this… You can go visit a business space for rent that claims 1800sqft… and when you measure it it’s 800sqft. Out of all the things to latch onto, this is a dumb one if you know anything about NYC real-estate. It’s been this way for decades (I left there in 2006, and it’s still this way.)
That’s interesting, I’ve googled examples and haven’t had any luck finding any articles on this. Would you be able to point me in the right direction?
Louis rossmann has a few videos on his channel about this problem when he was looking for a new space in new York.
I’ll look them up, thank you!

Here’s the playlist that he maintains on it.

What’s funny is all the downvotes… Like I was wrong.
Interesting, not something I’ve seen here in Colorado.
Yeah, I’ve not seen it in any other place I lived since NY… Most people would consider this practice fraud… But in NYC is literally everywhere.
