Restraining Order
When a 50-story $250 million residential project in Lower Manhattan was halted by a Temporary Restraining Order initiated by an adjacent property owner and a Stop Work Order issued by the New York City Department of Buildings, our attorneys stepped in and, within 48 hours, arranged for the lifting of the Temporary Restraining Order and the rescinding of the Stop Work Order. The solution was reached by retaining a prominent engineering firm and immediately working with the adjacent property owner and the New York City Department of Buildings to assure that no structural damage had been or would be experienced.

Severance Agreement
After China-based Anbag Insurance Group purchased the Waldorf for $1.95 million in late 2014, the firm’s chairman expressed the intent to convert the hotel into high-end condos, while maintaining a smaller five-star hotel. In 2015, the NY City Council passed a law banning hotels with more than 150 rooms from converting over 20% of the property into residences. The law exempted recent transactions, including the Waldorf. Standing in the way of moving forward were the 1,221 Waldorf union workers, whose jobs were protected by the Waldorf’s contract with the New York Hotel and Motel Trades Council, a union which represents hotel workers. The Waldorf reached a record deal with the union in which the hotel could pay almost $149 million in severance packages over the next two years. The average payout will be more than $142,000, with a handful of employees eligible for more than $300,000. One longtime worker is walking away with $656,409.68. Hilton Worldwide will continue to operate the hotel portion of the building. It has been announced that the entire hotel will be closed for renovation.
