The lot at 420-428 Albee Square sits across the street from the City Point megadevelopment in Downtown Brooklyn. The Girard family owned it for years, while a parking operator held a long-term lease. CPEX brokers Sean Kelly and Timothy King represented the sellers in the deal, which closed at $205 per buildable square foot.
