Citadel’s Griffin to Meet With New York Governor After Mamdani Spat

Citadel’s Ken Griffin said he’s meeting with New York Governor Kathy Hochul on Thursday to talk about the future direction of America’s biggest city after a spat with Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s over his $238 million Manhattan penthouse.

Mamdani’s decision to single out the billionaire’s property in his push for a new tax on pricey second homes demonstrated “a profound lack of judgment,” Griffin said on Tuesday at a panel in Norway. “What upset me was the personal attack.”
