Ken Griffin Can Build Anywhere. So Why Can't He Quit New York?

He moved Citadel's headquarters to Miami and declared New York hostile to success. Now he's building a $6 billion skyscraper in Manhattan.

Citadel CEO Ken Griffin and I have one big thing in common (sadly, it’s not billionaire status, at least not yet ;)

We both made a bet on Miami. My husband and I left New York City for Miami in 2021, only to move back two years later. Griffin moved Citadel’s headquarters from Chicago to Miami in 2022. Unlike me, he stayed.

But he hasn’t given up on New York.
