Lauren Sánchez Comes Under Fire as Jeff Bezos Closes Iconic NYC Street for Crane Delivery

Jeff Bezos’ latest home enhancement didn't merely attract attention—it brought an entire block in Manhattan to a halt, igniting frustration among locals who feel the billionaire is treating the city like his own personal domain.In need of furniture delivery to his NoMad penthouse, Bezos opts for a decidedly extravagant approach rather than the conventional moving truck most New Yorkers utilize. Instead of relying on Amazon's services, the billionaire orchestrated a dramatic scene, transforming a bustling Manhattan street into his exclusive loading zone, complete with barricades and a massive crane operation.This notable spectacle unfolded on May 31 along Fifth Avenue as crews shut down part of the iconic route to hoist what appeared to be a large wrapped item to the top of his penthouse at 212 Fifth Avenue, a property that reportedly houses five of his apartments worth a staggering $119 million. The viral footage of the event, captured by Raffi Arslanian, highlights the juxtaposition between such extreme wealth and the common New Yorker’s experience.
