The Heart of the City: Back Stories — Ahmed Khan The Billionaire Taking Over the City Ahmed Khan isn’t a street boss — he’s something far more dangerous. A billionaire businessman with a global mindset, Khan is quietly buying up New York City piece by piece, turning property into power and influence into control. With two Borough Presidents and Mayor Grizzo moving in alignment with him, permits get approved, zoning laws shift, and entire neighborhoods change at his command. But there’s one piece of the city he can’t lock down — Queens. Controlled by Roberto “Rob” Delgardo, who answers to Nikki Garcia, Queens has become the one barrier in Khan’s path to full domination. And unlike everyone else, Nikki doesn’t bend to money or politics. Now, two forces are on a collision course — one built on wealth and power, the other on strategy and control. Ahmed Khan isn’t just investing in the city… he’s trying to own it.
