84-bowery-nyc

NEW YORK CITY — Eastern Consolidated has arranged the sale of a six-story elevator office building with ground-floor retail space at 84 Bowery for $9.38 million. The 14,250-square-foot building is encumbered by a long-term master lease at substantially below-market rent. Peter Carillo and Adelaide Polsinelli represented the seller, Richard Shongut Realty Corp., and Carillo procured the buyer, a private investor. Chris Matousek of Eastern Consolidated served as the analyst for the deal. “The deal was challenging because it required an extremely patient and knowledgeable investor willing to accept a minimal yield for an extended period of time,” Carillo said. “However, the new owner will be able to recognize substantial upside upon the expiration of the lease. Floors two through six consist of offices leased to medical professionals and additional office space is available on the lower level. The ground floor and mezzanine are occupied by a jewelry store. The property also enjoys 25 feet of frontage along the Bowery as well as 2,700 square feet of unused development rights.”
