A spokesman for RFR declined to comment, while Wilder could not immediately be reached for comment.

The purchase would mark the latest in a series of recent deals by RFR. Earlier this month, The Real Deal reported that the firm was in contract to buy the Church Missions House at 281 Park Avenue South.

The firm plans to position the property as a single-tenant office building.
