Gluck, one of the city’s biggest landlords, has enlisted the help of commercial brokers Doug Harmon and Adam Spies of Eastdil Secured to sell the property, which will likely come to market next year. Sources told The Real Deal that the building at 450 West 15th Street could trade for up to $300 million. Gluck purchased the eight-story Meatpacking District property for $161 million in 2008, according to public records.
