The legal battle centers around a dispute over a penthouse expansion at 147 Reade Street in Tribeca, claimed by McDonald's as utilizing roof space they own.
McDonald's alleges that after Michael A. Smith obtained approval to expand the penthouse, he demolished a portion of the easement they held, violating prior agreements.
In its lawsuit, McDonald's is seeking to restore the roof to its original state and is demanding at least $10 million in damages for the encroachment.
In 2021, McDonald's asserted its original easement rights, claiming continued ownership of the roof space and highlighting unresolved HVAC issues they previously faced.
