A coalition of religious groups is calling on the developer of a luxury apartment high rise in Connecticut to remove Donald Trump's name from the residential tower.
The Trump Parc is a 35-story building that opened in 2009 and is the tallest in Stamford.
In a letter to developer F.D. Rich and Co., advocates said the building's name is "highly offensive to Fairfield County's diverse multi-ethnic community." Details of the letter were first reported by The Hour of Norwalk.
The developer says 90 percent of the apartments are sold, making it difficult to rename the building.
Religious groups are reacting to the Republican presidential front runner's call to ban Muslims from the U.S. Trump's comments were condemned by fellow Republicans and Democrats.
