“The Northern Manhattan submarket has been the most active submarket in the city this year, and this transaction is another example of this growing trend,” stated Massey Knakal Chairman Bob Knakal, who exclusively handled this transaction with Massey Knakal’s Robert Shapiro and Josh Lipton. “Through the first three quarters of this year there has already been a higher total sales volume up there than in all of last year,” he added.
“This portfolio had a significant amount of vacant retail space which investors found very appealing due to the current retail renaissance we are experiencing in Northern Manhattan,” said Robert Shapiro.
