NEW YORK CITY — The Hammacher Schlemmer Building, a 62,500-square-foot boutique retail and office building located at 145 E. 57th St. in New York City, was sold in a $34 million transaction. The building was constructed in 1926 as Hammacher Schlemmer's flagship building, and the catalogue company still occupies it today, though its lease will expire later this year. Darcy Stacom and Paul Gillen of CB Richard Ellis' Investment Properties Group, along with Robert Garrish of the firm's Private Client Group, represented the seller, Jenel Management Corp. The buyer was a Brazilian real estate developer.
