How to use Trump Tower and other luxury high-rises to clean dirty money, run an international crime syndicate, and propel a failed real estate developer into the White House.

In 1984, a Russian émigré named David Bogatin went shopping for
apartments in New York City. The 38-year-old had arrived in America
seven years before, with just $3 in his pocket. But for a former pilot
in the Soviet Army—his specialty had been shooting down Americans over
North Vietnam—he had clearly done quite well for himself. Bogatin wasn’t
hunting for a place in Brighton Beach, the Brooklyn enclave known as
“Little Odessa” for its large population of immigrants from the Soviet
Union. Instead, he was fixated on the glitziest apartment building on
Fifth Avenue, a gaudy, 58-story edifice with gold-plated fixtures and a
pink-marble atrium: Trump Tower.
