Although SL Green Realty bought a roughly 50 percent stake in Stonehenge’s 23-building, 2.6 million-square-foot portfolio late last year, it is not immediately clear if the firm is a partner on this pending deal.

Eastdil Secured’s Adam Spies and Douglas Harmon were marketing the property as a potential condo conversion, but Stonehenge is likely continue operating it as a rental, sources said.

Representatives from Stonehenge and Eastdil could not be reached, while Deutsche Bank declined to comment.

In another sizable, single-building Upper West Side multifamily buy, Larry Gluck’s Stellar Management is slated to close later this month on the $150 million purchase of the Paris, a 24-story rental at 752 West End Avenue.
