In the world of mid-market New York City investment sales last week, Treetop Development sold three Hamilton Heights rentals for $14 million and Crown Acquisitions bought a five-story walk-up in Washington Heights.

1.) Castellan Real Estate Partners picked up a five-story mixed-use building in Tribeca for $10.75 million. The six-unit building at 90 Chambers Street includes five residential units, including three full-floor units, and a ground-floor retail space currently leased to Japanese restaurant Kaede. The seller, Tissa Managment, bought the building for $8.5 million in 2014. The 8,850-square-foot property comes with 5,230 square feet of air rights.

2.) Also in Tribeca, KLM Equities bought two retail units at 415 Greenwich Street from Ashkenazy Acquisition Corporation for $11.5 million. The two units are on the ground-floor of the eight-story condominium building and are leased to Juice Press and FlyWheel through 2023. The combined square footage for the two units is 4,971 and combined NOI was $416,000 in 2016.

3.) Joseph and Vanessa Gad, a jeweler and realtor, picked up two commercial units at Park Avenue Court in Carnegie Hill for $10.2 million. The two units at 120 East 187th Street were embroiled in a lawsuit over a $37 million judgement issued by a Moscow court. The St. Petersburg-based VTB Bank had sued the seller, Igor Mavlyanov, in an effort to claim his New York assets to satisfy the judgment. The units span a combined 2,653 square feet.

The three buildings at 1883 to 1885 Amsterdam Avenue, between West 153rd and 154th streets, each have 20 residential units, all of which are rent-stabilized. The buildings sold at $700,000 a unit, or $14 million in total. Treetop paid $10.2 million for the building in 2014.

5.) Crown Acquisitions bought a five-story walk-up in Washington Heights from JPMorgan Chase for $12.2 million. The 14-unit building at 601 West 181st Street has two commercial units and spans 25,260 square feet. The price works out to over $1 million per unit. Crown, led by the Chera family, is a major developer of retail and office units throughout the city and recently secured $1 billion to refinance the Olympic Tower in Midtown.
