Goldman is mainly known as a prominent developer in Brooklyn. He founded a New York-based development company that has a number of holdings in the city. Goldman and his company benefited from the early-2000's rezoning of Williamsburg and Greenpoint, Brooklyn, areas that were historically held by the Hasidic community. He made a number of purchases during the 2008 recession that regained value after the downturn ended. In 2015, his split from former partner Toby Moskovits made news after Moskovits accused Goldman and Joel Gluck of seeking a Tel Aviv bond offering without consent.
