Atlas Capital purchased the building from property investor Mark Karasick last October, paying $5 million through a deed-in-lieu and $77 million for the first mortgage, as The Real Deal previously reported. The property was valued at $102 million at the time.

In June, Scott Rechler’s RXR Realty paid $110 million for the Standard Motors Building at 37-18 Northern Boulevard, Crain’s previously reported. [Crain’s]Tom DiChristopher
