Aug. 31 (Bloomberg) -- Africa Israel Investments Ltd., the real-estate company controlled by diamond billionaire Lev Leviev, will sell about half its holdings in two New York City landmarks it bought last year to help finance development of the properties.
Africa is selling 49.9 percent of its holding in the Clock Tower and 49 percent of the Times Building properties in midtown Manhattan, as well as its entire stake in the 23 Wall Street/15 Broad Street property downtown, the Yehud, Israel-based company said today in a statement.
