Not negating the issue of housing in crown heights but since when are shluchim not considered unzere? They are part of lubavitch, no? And what about all the other communities outside of crown heights? They are also not considered “unzere” right? Only crown heights= lubavitch?
Besides which these guys don’t even live in ch. what does ch housing have ANYTHING to do with this article? Vent somewhere else. Write an op-Ed. Lol

That’s the way VCs work. Majority of the positions go bust, you make your money with the home runs. Whether A&B went bust is irrelevant, it worked out well for DS and if the sponsors were successful enough, they are raising later funds to keep seeking out the homeruns.

Hatzlachah Raba with DSCN! It’s great to see Lubavitchers getting into this field.

Great story

It sold for $40-$50 million in 2011. #4 you are wrong. And I’ll bet he sells his next company for a lot more BE”H. Wish it was a publicly traded company so I could buy it! $$$

The company sold for $400k out of the bankruptcy court after the “smart money” ruined the company. The “smart money” (private equity group) bought the company from David for 45 million dollars. When he sold it to them it was a gem. I know because I WORKED THERE. Get our facts straight. And MAZEL TOV to Schotty and the Nash’s! You guys are the best.

AMAZING!!

LOL to “Mendel”, people like you really make me laugh. Get a life. Mazel to David, Eli and Ben. If every one of our communities had just one of you guys the world would be a better place. Seeing the three of you join forces is beautiful and exciting!

Just one time it would be so nice to see a post where the bitter, jealous and cynical people didn’t post stupid comments. Just one time. Mazal tov to these three amazing individuals. Keep up the great work.

It was sold by Daveed for $50 million. The guys that bought it destroyed it and took it into bankruptcy. It sold from bankruptcy court for $400k but Daveed sold it for $50 million.

Talmudic study experts have arrived. Doing a bit of research says that Astor& Black was sold for $400k. If there is a will – I want to be in it!

Beautiful!!

What a partnership!! 3 of the most admired people in Chabad are now working together!?? Amazing. I can’t even begin to imagine the amount of extra tzedaka that will flow to our shluchim and mosdos as a result of this. Hatzlacha Rabba!!!!

Hatzlacha Rabba. Give nachas to the Rebbe and your families by keeping good morals and values.
