Mitsui Fudosan
By November 2014, the Japanese real estate investment firm Mitsui Fudosan was looking to buy part of the tower. The move came after J.P. Morgan Chase put forth a proposal to invest in the tower, but later withdrew due to the New York City government's refusal to give J.P. Morgan Chase about in subsidies and tax breaks. On December 30, 2014, Mitsui Fudosan bought a 92.09% majority stake in the project for $259 million.
