Influencers in Multifamily 2025
Manhattan Skyline Management Corp., a division of Donald Zucker Co., owns and manages several thousand luxury apartments in New York City’s most desirable neighborhoods and has developed some of the city’s most prominent condominiums and cooperatives over 60 years. The company leverages in house architecture, leasing, and maintenance teams for discreet, high-quality management, regularly implementing strategic capital improvements in response to evolving resident demand—most recently updating fitness centers, hallways, and elevators in legacy properties. Manhattan Skyline pioneered the no-fee rental policy and white-label branded concierge service ahead of market adoption, setting standards that many other NYC owners have since followed.
The company refines and adapts its package offerings to meet distinct neighborhood and tenant needs, adding amenities like cleaning services, event management, and dog walking based on resident usage trends. In the past three years, leadership by Daniel Lederman secured multiple portfolio refinancings, including a $55 million first mortgage for The Murray Hill and a 10-year retail condo loan on East 85th Street—both completed in difficult market conditions. Philanthropic involvement runs deep, with Laurie Zucker and Lederman serving on boards for the Real Estate Board of New York, Northwell Health, Childrens Museum of Manhattan, and numerous community and cultural organizations throughout New York, exemplifying a commitment to industry leadership and civic engagement.
