The Related Cos. closed on another Hudson Yards site for $30 million, property records filed with the city Monday show.

The site, located at 507-511 West 33rd Street, houses a five-story manufacturing building that measures just over 36,000 square feet.

Under the current zoning, Related can put up a building of 79,000 square feet, although sources said the developer has far larger aspirations for the site.

Coach owns an adjacent building at 516 West 34th Street, which it bought for $126 million in 2008. Under Coach’s 2013 deal to buy 738,000 square feet at 10 Hudson Yards, the retailer agreed to sell Related that property.
