Toms Capital LLC and founder Noam Gottesman were sued for $34 million by a real estate investor who claims the billionaire undermined their joint plans to redevelop a Manhattan warehouse to protect his own neighboring townhouse.

Harch Group principal Harry Jeremias claims that Gottesman partnered with him to acquire and redevelop the property, in the historic Meatpacking District, but that once Gottesman gained control over the project he froze out Jeremias while inducing Jeremias’s protege to help quash the plans.
