We discuss how complex ground-up projects can lay waste to capital stacks, and what can happen between partners under pressure. We then look at the latest alarm bells ringing in the high-octane world of data center development – Blue Owl is staring down a multibillion-dollar void, and OpenAI’ s marquee Stargate project has had major challenges powering up. Finally, we explore the rise of the rich renter – a trend that’s reshaping the multifamily – and condo markets. We also do a \" Punch List \" rundown of the newsiest industry happenings: Shvo selling Transamerica Pyramid in SF; the Kushner battle over Veris Residential ; Witkoff's Roosevelt Hotel cameo; ICE' s $38B warehouse shopping spree; and Stonepeak's marina moves.
