NEW YORK, N.Y., June 28, 2023 - JLL Capital Markets announced the $120 million sale of 600 Columbus Ave., a 14-story full-service elevator building spanning an entire block front between West 89th and West 90th Streets on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
JLL represented both the sellers and the buyer, a joint venture of New York owner, operator and developer Slate Property Group, New Jersey-based investment, development, and management firm, KABR Group, and equity platform, Avenue Realty Capital (ARC). The transaction represents the largest single multi-housing acquisition in New York City so far this year.
Built by Columbus Townhouse Associates in 1986, 600 Columbus Ave. comprises 166 apartments, 27,500-square-feet of retail and 100 parking spots. The building features six commercial spaces situated on the ground and second floors and occupied by tenants including ACE Hardware, Atmosphere Kitchen & Bath, Round Star Soccer and Columbus Pre-School.
The property is nestled between Central Park, Riverside Park and Theodore Roosevelt Park and surrounded by dynamic retail, restaurant and cultural offerings, including the American Museum of Natural History, Lincoln Center and the Metropolitan Opera House. It offers close proximity to Columbia University and Fordham's Lincoln Center campus and multiple transportation options, including the 1, 2, 3, B, and C trains, providing connectivity to Midtown in under 15 minutes.
"This was a great deal for both parties," said Bob Knakal, Head of JLL's New York Private Capital Group, who arranged the transaction with Senior Managing Directors Rob Hinckley and Jeff Julien, and Managing Directors Jonathan Hageman and Hall Oster. "The sellers were able to monetize the asset in a very challenging market and the buyers were able to pick up a property with significant embedded upside."
