    • Attempted Purchases

    RXR Realty has also made news related to significant unsuccessful bids to buy New York City real estate.

  • In October 2013, the company attempted to buy One Worldwide Plaza but lost to American Realty Capital. RXR Realty filed a $200 million lawsuit attempting to block the sale due to their claim that American Realty Capital unethically used RXR's financial analysis to form a higher bid. The owner of Worldwide Plaza, George Comfort & Sons, claims that RXR was unable to obtain financing to complete the purchase of the property within the allocated timeframe and this the deal had been closed.
  • Also in October 2013, RXR was outbid by Shanghai-based Fosun International Ltd in their effort to acquire One Chase Manhattan Plaza.
