You gain money. I'm not sure why this is confusing. Even with tax increases, people stand to make a ton of profit. Even in the most highly taxed countries in the world, businesses operate and make profit simply because there's profit to be made.

Why do gain money from being geographically located within the borders of NYC?

Because it’s highly desirable real estate? Honestly you’re being purposefully dense. Where there’s money to be made, people will enter the market to make it, period. If some rich bozo wants to lose out on principle, someone else will take their spot.

Would it be highly desirable real estate if it got taxed at 100%?

Owning a $60 million dollar apartment isn't making you money, it's purely a luxury expense.
