GREINER-MALTZ BROKERS THE SALE OF 70,000 SF WILLIAMSBURG DEVELOPMENT SITE

Long Island City, NY, June 18, 2012 – A symbol of Williamsburg’s industrial past, an abandoned candle manufacturing factory situated abutting the elevated Brooklyn-Queens Expressway at Meeker Avenue has been sold to a development group for commercial/residential development.

Greiner-Maltz represented both the purchaser and the seller. Adrian Smilovici, Director of International Sales headed up the brokerage team with the assistance of Kostas Alafoyiannis, Senior Director.

This 72,000 sf site had been on the market for over 3 years before the Greiner-Maltz Team began its marketing program. The sale price of $9,400,000 reflected the recent eastward expansion of the Williamsburg mixed-use market, as well as the growing availability of financing. The purchaser, The Lichtenstein Group, plans on developing the site for residential and commercial.
