It's a very old building. Getting tenants is going to be difficult when they expect top of the line cutting edge tech capabilities. There may be structural issues we're unaware of, asbestos,lead paint... The building is iconic, but the price of a building is only the start of ownership costs.

Many skyscrapers sell for far below market value. Some of that may have to do with the tax situation there etc.

Probably full of asbestos and half empty I'm sure they would bldg 7 it if they thought they could get away with it.

150M might look cheap, but does it need to be torn down? State of the building makes a huge difference. Especially in a shithole like NYC where everything costs at least 3x as much as anywhere else.

It is. A four-building complex in SF, the Embarcadero center, sold for 1,220 million... twenty years ago.

150 million makes me think there must be something seriously wrong with the building, the land alone is worth at least that much.
