The biggest mid-market sale recorded in New York City last week was in the Bronx.
Beitel Group’s Binyamin Beitel, through an LLC, purchased a development site at 120 East 144th Street in Mott Haven, the Bronx, for $41.5 million from Tori Realty Group. Beitel Group has filed permits for a 13-story residential building on the property with 470 units.
While that sale was slightly above the typical $10 million to $40 million range of transactions included in this weekly roundup, seven other mid-market commercial deals recorded in city records last week fetched a total of $118 million. Five of the deals occurred in Brooklyn, one in the Bronx and one in Manhattan.
Elsewhere in the Bronx, a 22,000-square-foot building at 1851 Phelan Place, most recently operated as an adult shelter, sold for $25.5 million. Yoel Zagelbaum signed as the borrower for the buyer, a limited liability company. The property had previously been managed by Childrens Community Services Inc., a nonprofit that obtained over $900 million in city contracts before it was reportedly raided by federal authorities for allegedly defrauding the city with false billings.
