The Timekeeper Building, a six-story office building at 307 East 53rd Street, is now on the market, and will likely sell for just over $20 million, sources sold the Post. The 40,000-square-foot East Side building, between First and Second avenues near the United Nations could be purchased by a foreign country. A price of $20 million would be a discount compared to recent sales in the area to foreign governments whose costs will trend over $900 a foot. Office tenants at the building include current owner Amerimar Enterprises, Bombo Sports and Entertainment, wine distributor Frederick Wildman & Sons and the Caudalie Vinotherapy Spa's offices. Robert Garrish, Paul Gillen and Darcy Stacom of CB Richard Ellis are marketing the property.
 
Republic of Tanzania purchases East Side building for $24.5M

The Republic of Tanzania has purchased the Timekeeper Building, a six-story office property at 307 East 53rd Street near the United Nations, for $24.5 million, according to public records filed with the city today.

The 40,000-square-foot, six-story building, between First and Second avenues, was put on the market by Philadelphia-based real estate investment firm Amerimar Enterprises in September 2010. Robert Garrish, Paul Gillen and Darcy Stacom of CB Richard Ellis were hired to market the property.
Amerimar purchased the property from a company named Mittman Associates for $15.45 million in 2005.

Office tenants at the building include Amerimar as well as Bombo Sports and Entertainment, wine distributor Frederick Wildman & Sons and the Caudalie Vinotherapy Spa's offices.

A representative for the Republic of Tanzania was not immediately available for comment, but a person who answered the phone at the Tanzanian embassy in Washington D.C. confirmed that the county's New York embassy may be moving from its home at 201 East 42nd Street.

A spokesperson for Amerimar did not return a call by press time. Garrish, Gillen and Stacom declined to comment on the closing.

This purchase marks Tanzania's second in the last few months. As previously reported, in August, the Mission for the United Republic of Tanzania based in New York, bought a Great Neck, Long Island center hall colonial house for $1.26 million. Orly Hollander of Laffey Fine Homes, who was the listing agent on the property, said at the time that the home is for a Tanzanian diplomat with his children.


Orly Hollander of Laffey Fine Homes can now add the United Republic of Tanzania to her list of buyers. She was the listing agent on a Great Neck center hall Colonial that recently sold to the Tanzanian mission for $1.26 million, according to the Long Island Real Estate Report.

How different was the experience for Hollander? She needed the
U.S. Department of State to OK it. "This is the first deal I ever did where I needed the government's approval," Hollander says. She adds the home is for the family of an attaché with four children.


The home has five bedrooms, four bathrooms and an open floor plan. The master bedroom has a bath with a Jacuzzi and shower. A two-car garage is attached. The deal closed at the end of June, according to public records.



The State Department statement indicated that requiring government approval is standard practice and in accordance with the Foreign Missions Act. Any foreign mission is required to obtain the U.S. Secretary of State's approval before any acquisition, sale or disposition of real estate is completed.The statement says there is usually no impact to a community from the presence of a diplomatic residence, and, yes, the State Department has turned down applications in the past.By the way, the Tanzanian government will be coughing up $22,093.66 a year for property taxes (or almost 36 million Tanzanian shillings).
 
Nguvumali, huo wenye walet ya mahela ni mkono wako? Huna shida kama mie bwana, uko ndani ya cresta gx 100, unakunywa maji ya kilimanjaro, walet imejaa, mungu akupe nini. Mie hapa nilipo nina 500 tu, chini ya mwembe. Hata maji ya kunywa sina.

Nikijifananisha mimi na wewe. Nawafikiria hao mafisadi na wenye pesa. Hawana wac wac, kwao pesa sio tatizo. Tatizo ni wazitumieje. Watoto wao wanapata elimu bora. Sio kwetu sisi walalahoi pangu pakavu tia mchuzi. Kwa kweli hali hii ikiendelea tuwaingilie tukawanyang'anye waliyotuibia.

The common factors appearing to contribute to societal collapse are economic, environmental, social and cultural, but they manifest combined effects like a whole system out of balance. In many cases a natural disaster (e.g. tsunami, earthquake, massive fire or climate change) may seem to be an immediate cause. However, other cases of civilizations in similar situations that were resilient and survived the same kind of insult show that such causes are not sufficient.

This is the reasoning method used by Joseph Tainter, and how he examined the evidence to eliminate the insufficient causes in his thesis that societies essentially exhausted their own designs, and were unable to adapt to natural diminishing returns for what they knew as their method of survival. It matches closely Toynbee's idea that "they find problems they can't solve".

The diversity of forms that societies evolve corresponds to diversity in their failures too. In other instances significant inequity may combine with lack of loyalty to a central power structure and result in an oppressed lower class rising up and taking power from a smaller wealthy elite.If there is a general "antidote" to collapse, it would seem to be social cohesion, economic growth and adaptability.

Tanzania is no exception to this......
