New York—An affiliate of Rockpoint Group LLC has acquired 63 and 67 Wall St. in Manhattan’s Financial District from an affiliate of DTH Capital Inc., the two companies announced last week.
The towers originally served as the headquarters for Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. and the Munson Shipping Co., and were transformed into residential communities a decade ago. The buildings now include a total of 807 rental apartments, amenity spaces for residents, on-site parking and ground-floor retail space. Financial terms of the transaction have not been disclosed.
The 331-unit 67 Wall St. was previously known as The Crest Lofts, and is managed by FirstService Residential, according to data from Yardi Matrix. Completed in 1921 and converted to multifamily in 2007, the building was 94 percent occupied as of August, and its 25 stories comprise studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments.

The building was converted to multifamily in 2004 and encompasses 476 studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom units across 37 floors, according to Yardi Matrix. The asset also includes 9,500 square feet of retail space and a rooftop terrace.
