Foreclosure and buyer-deposit disputes
The project entered foreclosure after defaulting on construction financing. Dozens of buyers pursued claims involving undelivered units and deposits, creating a substantial litigation burden around the unfinished property.
2009
Buyer litigation over Trump branding and delayed completion
Condominium buyers filed lawsuits alleging that marketing materials overstated Donald Trump's role in the project and that the development failed to meet contractual completion expectations. Trump removed his name after the licensing arrangement ended. A later jury ruled for Trump in the first case, and an appeals court upheld that outcome, while other claims were settled or remained subject to separate proceedings.
