NYC Real Estate, and was financially successful in NYC Real Estate was Donald's father, Fred Trump (another horrible human being). Fred left a massive fortune, based on Real Estate, to young Donald who mismanaged and pissed most of it away. I've lived in Manhattan for 53 years. I know a little about our skyline(s) and the Trump Family most certainly did not, "Build the skyline of New York City."
