It\u2019s an ideal location and great makeup in Gramercy, which is ridiculously hot right now,\u201d David Israni, Broad Street Development\u2019s senior managing director, told <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em>. \u201cIn addition to traditional tenants, the area appeals to lots of financial tenants\u2014high-income employees who need nice real estate to walk to work and the nightlife.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Located at 210 E. 22nd St., and 220 E. 22nd St., the BSD joint venture originally acquired the mid-rise, loft-style multi-family properties in 2012 for $85 million. Both properties are mainly comprised of studio and one-bedroom units with multiple floor plans that attract a broad range of tenants.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had a seven-year plan and implemented it our way, putting about $4 million in improvements renovating the units and adding amenities,\u201d Israni said. \u201cWe were able to realize returns very quickly and exceeded our plans. We did the value add we planned and now we have funds to repeat the cycle with new acquisitions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Among the value adds to the units were the installation of hardwood floors, renovation of balconies\/patios and additions of walk-in closets. Upgrades were also done to the lobbies, roofs, windows, doors and HVAC systems in both.<\/p>\n<p>The buildings boast modern lobbies, laundry on each floor, elevators and doormen. Additionally, they installed landscaped private gardens that fully maximized the assets\u2019 rental value.<\/p>\n<p>Gramercy West and Gramercy Central are conveniently located to the 4, 5, 6, L, N, R, and Q trains, and some of the finest dining, shopping and entertainment. Gramercy Park\u2019s quiet, residential blocks offer a mixture of brownstones, walk-ups and high-rise buildings.<\/p>\n<p>The HFF investment sales team led by senior managing director Andrew Scandalios, along with managing director Jeffrey Julien and director Rob Hinckley marketed the assets and arranged the sale on behalf of BSD and Crow Holdings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The big institutional investor snapped up a Manhattan property, providing quite a return for a conversion specialist and longtime Dallas family firm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":451,"featured_media":1004128251,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21783,21742,10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004128248","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-investment","category-latest","category-northeast"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
