The <em>Commercial Observer<\/em> identified the buyer as Jacob Chetrit, of the Chetrit Organization. The blockbuster deal, one of the largest in the city so far this year, is expected to officially close in the first quarter of 2020, the firm said in a release announcing the sale. Representatives for SL Green could not be immediately reached for comment.<\/p>\n<p>The 37-story art deco office building, which formerly housed the headquarters of The New York Daily News, is located at the corner of 42<sup>nd<\/sup> Street and Second Avenue in Midtown. The deal comes on the heels of SL Green <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/sl-greens-manhattan-supertall-tops-out\/\">topping out its $3.1 billion supertall skyscraper<\/a> One Vanderbilt two weeks ago nearby in Manhattan. The 1.6 million-square-foot office tower broke ground in 2016 and will rise 1,401 feet once completed in 2020, making it the fourth-tallest building in New York City.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>READ ALSO: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/sl-green-sells-manhattan-tower-to-savanna-for-381m\/\">SL Green Sells Manhattan Tower to Savanna for $381M<\/a><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>In 2003, SL Green bought 220 E. 42<sup>nd<\/sup> St. for $265 million from Witkoff, after its initial $53.5 million preferred equity investment in the fall of 2001.

The property is currently 97 percent occupied, with tenants including the Visiting Nurse Service of New York, Omnicom Group, local television network WPIX and the United Nations.
