The developer of the Ground Zero mosque is being bounced from his SoHo office, the Daily News has learned.
Sharif&nbsp; El-Gamal, who runs the real estate firm Soho Properties and is heading&nbsp; the project two blocks from Ground Zero, was slapped with eviction&nbsp; proceedings last month after tallying up $39,000 in back rent, a <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Manhattan" target="_blank">Manhattan</a> Housing Court filing shows.
The&nbsp; management company that runs 552 Broadway, where El-Gamal leases space,&nbsp; said in the filing that he was warned in July and given until&nbsp; mid-August to pay up.
But when the August deadline passed, management company <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/topics/Royal+Crospin+Corp." target="_blank">Royal Crospin Corp.</a> filed the eviction notice.
It&#039;s not the first time El-Gamal&#039;s company has fallen behind in rent.
Royal Crospin sued Soho Properties last year for nearly $89,000 in back rent. El-Gamal&#039;s firm paid $56,000 to settle.
Even before eviction proceedings began, El-Gamal&#039;s lease was to expire this Oct. 31.</blockquote>
