Highest paid banker on Wall Street Dick Handler [View all]

Highest paid banker on Wall Street suing renovators of neighbouring building for ruining view from his 360-degree glass penthouse

As the highest-paid banker on Wall Street, Dick Handler feels he has earned a $24-million glass penthouse from which to enjoy uninterrupted 360-degree panoramas of the city he conquered.

So it is unacceptable, he alleged in a lawsuit filed in Manhattan this week, that fashionable upstarts from London are preparing to spoil his view.



Mr Handler, 51, “will suffer real and irreparable harm” if Spring Studios, a Camden-based design firm, installs a lift on the roof of a neighbouring building, he claimed in his complaint.
