They can't. The lease hasn't expired. Did you read the article?

Did you read the part that said
"The lease agreement said that if the landlord of the property were to demolish it, it would need to include space for the synagogue in any new project that is built in its place".
So eventually 99 years will pass, lease is over, owner should do what they want.

And did you read the part that says "...Gamal purchased the building for $61.5 million and inherited the synagogue’s lease agreement."? 99 years has not passed. What part of this is failing to get through to you?
