There was no Greek empire to get wealthy. The Greek world comprised hundreds of independent city-states spread from Masilia (now Marseilles) around the Mediterranean Sea and Black Sea littoral - Italy, Sicily, mainland Greece, Asia Minor, the Aegean islands and North Africa.
Addition
Although there was no Greek empire as such, the Athenian empire might be counted instead. It grew wealthy through its domination of the Delian League and the naval power it boasted in the Mediterranean. However, Greece as a whole was not united until the early 1800s; to that time, it a grouping of separate states or part of a larger empire besides itself.
What was the question
While there was a temporary Athenian empire, it comprised a fraction of the Greek city-states which were around the Aegean Sea. So it was not a Greek empire - it was the Athenian-dominated anti-Persian league. And the Greece of 1500 years later was certainly not an empire.

The city was home to the famous Lighthouse of Alexandria and the Great Library, attracting scholars and traders alike. Its thriving port facilitated the exchange of goods such as grain, textiles, and luxury items, while its status as a cultural and intellectual center drew in additional wealth and resources. Additionally, the city's connections to the Nile River enhanced agricultural productivity, further contributing to its prosperity.
It was built in Ptolemaic Egypt, which was Egypt conquered by Greeks. So it's in Egypt, but it was built by Greek conquerors.
Alexander intended to introduce Greek culture to the Persian Empire when he took it over. The central focus of Greek culture was the city-state. So part of his Hellenisation programme was to establish Greek-style city-states in tribal areas. So he set about establishing them, founding over 70 cities. He modestly named half of them Alexandria after himself. A notable survivor today is Alexandria in Egypt.
It had an extensive library the largest in the ancient world and people wanted to go to Alexandria's museum.
