NEW YORK -- 

Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announces the sale of 260 East 161st Street, a Class A office and retail building totaling 276,622 square feet in the Bronx borough of New York City.

The HFF team represented the seller, Acadia Realty Trust, and procured the buyer, Jamestown. Additionally, HFF is currently working on behalf of the buyer to arrange financing for the asset.

Originally built in 1930, 260 East 161st Street was renovated in 2016 and features 245,470 square feet of office space and 20,572 square feet of retail space. The 10-story property is leased to office tenants, including The City of New York, The Legal Aid Society, Montefiore Medical Center and retail tenants, Walgreens, Starbucks and Chipotle Mexican Grill. Its location in the most heavily trafficked office and retail corridor in the Bronx – the East 161st corridor in Concourse Village – provides it with heightened demand due to proximity to the borough courthouses and city government buildings as well as Yankee Stadium, five blocks away. Additionally, the core asset is served by multiple transportation options, including the 4, B and D subway lines; Metro-North Railroad and the George Washington Bridge.

The HFF investment advisory team representing the seller included executive managing director Michael Tepedino, senior managing director Andrew Scandalios, managing directors Graham Stephens and David Giancola and senior director David Fowler.
