Goldstein Hall’s Role/Special Challenges & Problems Overcome

Goldstein Hall worked closely with the NYS Attorney General’s office to ensure approval of this large, scattered-site cooperative. In addition, the firm worked with the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development to procure Article XI tax benefits. The firm also handled stock issuances of several hundred individuals.
