INVESTMENT SALES IN MANHATTAN AND BROOKLYN
Manhattan investment sales in January reached just over $3 billion in deals recorded— 12 percent above the 12-month average, but down 30 percent from December’s peak. The top sale was of the office building One Dag Hammarskjöld, which Rockpoint Group bought from the Ruben Companies for $566 million. Brooklyn held steady in January, with recorded deals totaling $773 million, just 5 percent above the 12-month average and down 3.5 percent from the previous month. Warehouse deals dominated once again, and the largest sale saw Dov Hertz, Bridge Development Partners and Banner Oak Capital Partners team up for a $255 million last-mile play at Sunset Industrial Park.

INVESTMENT SALES IN QUEENS AND THE BRONX
Queens investment sales ticked up slightly in January with $602 million in deals recorded, exceeding $500 million for the fourth straight month. The top deal in the borough was Criterion Group’s acquisition of a Long Island City development site for just under $80 million, after a lawsuit from the seller, PEC Realty, was dismissed. The Bronx started the year strong with over $367 million in deals recorded in January, nearly 70 percent more than the 12-month average, and the second-highest volume in the past year. Nearly a third of that sum came from the borough’s largest deal of the month, in which Maryland-based Realterm Logistics paid $115 million to buy a Morris Park warehouse from Modell’s Sporting Goods.
