TODAY’S DEALS: JV Sells Brooklyn Mixed-Use Asset for $28.8M
Silverstone Property Group and Adam America sell a property is Williamsburg; and Greystone provides $8.5 million in HUD financing for an Illinois property.
New York—A 28-unit mixed-use asset located in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn has traded hands for $28.8 million. The sellers/developers were Silverstone Property Group and Adam America Real Estate Group. In addition to its apartment space, 65-69 North 6th Street contains 4,000 square feet of ground-floor retail and 14 off-street parking spaces.
Silverstone and Adam America reworked the previous owner’s plans for a 24-unit condo, reconfiguring the product into a luxury rental building. Construction began in August 2011, with completion in September 2012. Every unit was rented within 30 days of hitting the market, which goes to show just how hot the trendy Williamsburg neighborhood is.
“We’re pleased with every step of our execution of this project, from start to finish,” says Martin Nussbaum, a principal of Silverstone. “The results speak for themselves, in the value we created and then realized through this disposition.”
