Residents push for renaming of Trump Plaza to disassociate from ex-president
Tenants of the high-rise in New Rochelle, New York, want to abandon the name which has at times affected real estate value
While Donald Trump endures the ignominy of being the first former US president to face criminal trial, there is further humiliation brewing, with a movement to strip the Trump name from a building in his home state.
Residents at Trump Plaza, a 40-story high-rise in the suburban New York city of New Rochelle, are pushing for the building to be renamed and to escape a near-two decade association with the legally-troubled ex-president and real estate mogul.
It would follow the slew of buildings in New York City and elsewhere that have abandoned the Trump name since he entered politics, as Trump has become a divisive, much-loathed figure by liberals even as he is loved by his fans.
Owners of Trump Plaza apartments – there are 194 units – are in the middle of a vote which would further erase Trump’s name – something which would not just have implications for the people who live in the building.

This article would drive him crazy if he could stay coherent enough to learn what ignominy means.
Trump's "just grab them by the pussy" quote was revealed to the public almost a decade ago, in October of 2016.
Trump's successful assassination attempt was in January of 2020, after his first impeachment but before his second one, and before the "excess deaths" from the pandemic killed more Americans than all wars combined.
Trump's conviction of rape was one year ago.
How long has it been since Trump even traveled to NYC, from Florida - didn't he even move his "home state" status there officially a couple years back?
Other places changed their names to remove the toxic Trump phrase multiple years ago in the past.
Click bait article seems to be dredging up click bait drama, about some rich folks who now (why NOW all of a sudden!?) worry about their property values being affected by the Trump name - as the article states, not bc of anything that he did, but bc he's currently under investigation and so due to the negative stigma attached to that, i.e. rich folks worry that they may be less rich soon. Sorry / not sorry if I don't care in the slightest.
from Florida - didn’t he even move his “home state” status there officially a couple years back?
He did. Probably for tax purposes. As a native, I would like the states to the north to quit sending us your racist grandparents!
Maybe DeSantis should spend a billion dollars building a wall, to keep out the immigrants from NYC!? :-P
He already effectively did that to keep out Disney it seems. :-|
When [NYC] sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

Successful assassination attempt?
To be clear, not of himself, but rather when Trump assassinated Iranian General Qassem Soleimani - whatever else he may have been, he was employed in that capacity by a foreign power, and Trump killed him with a "precision strike", aka assassination. I thought that event might have literally started WWIII, but instead Iran was like "naw, we're cool bro", and that was it.
Every time I see a headline like this I hope it's about the Chicago building that Trump's name is currently stinking up. One day.
They're not the only ones. I wish them luck!
The building opened in 2012 as the Trump International Hotel and Tower Toronto. The Trump family-owned The Trump Organization held the management contract for the hotel and was a minority shareholder in the project. This affiliation with Donald Trump – then a real estate developer and reality-television star, later President of the United States – was controversial, and led to public calls to drop the building's Trump branding.
Trump's home state is Florida...
