Tribeca Film Festival HQ lists at $105M

The 80,000-square-foot headquarters of the Tribeca Film Festival is being shopped around for $105 million, after trading for just $56 million at the end of 2012, The Real Deal has learned. Eastern Consolidated’s David Schechtman is marketing the six-story mixed-use property at 13-17 Laight Street on behalf of the owners, investment advisory firm Whitestar Advisors and development firm VE Equities, headed by Zach Vella and Justin Ehrlich. Several of the building’s commercial leases are set to expire in 2014 and 2015, according to CoStar Group, which would allow the building to be repositioned. It also has nine residential units, all but one of them market-rate. The property comes with unused air rights, which could allow for construction of more units.
