A joint venture of Goldman Sachs Asset Management and Blumenfeld Development Group is buying an industrial property in the Bronx for $38.5 million.

The companies are buying the Hunts Point property from Advantage Wholesale Supply, and they plan to use it as a warehouse for last-mile distribution, according to Pinnacle Realty’s David Junik, who brokered both sides of the deal with his colleagues Fred Stein and Ariel Castellanos. CBRE’s Bill Jordan brought in Blumenfeld on the transaction.

This is the second sizable Bronx deal that Pinnacle Realty has recently brokered. The firm also represented both sides in the sale of 1601 Bronxdale Avenue, which Himmel + Meringoff Properties and Square Mile Capital purchased for $89 million.

Blumenfeld recently landed a $235 million refinancing package for its East River Plaza retail center in East Harlem.
