Josh Zegen, Managing Principal and Co-Founder of Madison Realty Capital, said, “260 South Street will provide much needed housing in Two Bridges, a highly desirable area of Manhattan where there are significant barriers to entry. The East River waterfront is poised for growth, and we are excited to play a role in the development of new housing in the submarket. Chetrit Group is a repeat borrower and Madison Realty Capital is pleased to deliver a creative financing solution for this notable acquisition in short order.”
The fully planned Class-A property, which is ready to begin construction, will consist of a 64-story and 70-story tower, 1,300 multifamily units, 16,000 square feet of retail space and 130 parking spaces. The development will offer a mix of studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom units with modern amenities and views of Manhattan and Brooklyn across the East River. The property will be part of the Affordable New York program to offer affordable rents.
