Soho House Postgame And Billion-Dollar Capstacks

We break down the puzzling $2.7B take-private of Soho House – what do Apollo, MCR, Ron Burkle and Ashton Kutcher think they can pull off by revitalizing the famed member's club? The discussion touches on everything from select-service hotels to Tyler Morse's start as "Barry's guy" to the perils of the hospitality business. We then break down the capital stacks on two closely watched Manhattan megadeals: RXR's purchase of 590 Madison Avenue and Miki Naftali's ultra-luxury condo play at 800 Fifth Avenue. Finally, we explore Yieldstreet's latest debacle and ask: Is real estate crowdfunding doomed by design?
