Avison Young, as the exclusive agent, is pleased to offer for sale the leasehold interest in The Haymarket Building, located at 135 West 29th Street (the “Property”), a recently renovated and repositioned loft office and retail building located in the heart of Manhattan’s Midtown South submarket. The 12-story property contains approximately 82,714 rentable square feet with ground floor retail, eleven office floors above and a brand new shared rooftop amenity. The leasehold interest runs through 2120, providing the next owner with nearly a century of operational runway in Manhattan's hottest submarket.
Discounted Leasehold Basis
Long-term ground lease running through 2120 with no fair market value resets, providing a substantially discounted basis relative to comparable fee-simple Midtown South office assets.
Recent $12.0+ Million Renovation
Ownership recently completed a comprehensive building repositioning, featuring a redesigned lobby, new elevators, upgraded electrical systems, renovated bathrooms, and a new shared rooftop amenity. Local Law 11 was also completed.
Mark-to-Market Upside
In-place office rents are below market with substantial near-term rollover, allowing new ownership to capture immediate NOI growth as leases roll.
