Ashkenazy gives up claim to Surrey Hotel, but wants the furniture

Ben Ashkenazy is giving up his claim to the bankrupt Surrey Hotel, but he’s holding onto the furniture. The Chapter 7 bankruptcy trustee for the Upper East Side hotel terminated Ashkenazy’s ground lease on the property, according to a recent court filing. Ashkenazy didn’t oppose the move, but the investor did assert his claims to the hotel’s furniture, which includes a chandelier, a piano, two refrigerators, two microwaves and 209 beds.
