Kassin Sabbagh Realty Hires Former Newmark Vice Chairman To Expand Retail Leasing Growing New York Firm Adds 8,000 Square Feet to Its Office Footprint

Brokerage firm Kassin Sabbagh Realty has named three industry veterans, including a former Newmark vice chairman, to expand its retail leasing. The brokerage firm said it’s also expanded its Manhattan office footprint as it leased over 1 billion square feet last year. Barry Fishbach, formerly a vice chairman at Newmark, joined KSR also as vice chairman, the brokerage firm said in a statement this week. With over 25 years of industry experience, Fishbach specializes in retail leasing throughout New York, New Jersey and Long Island where he represents institutional landlords, developers and national retailers, as well as investment sales in the greater New York City area, KSR said. He’s completed over 100 transactions with financial institution tenants such as Capital One, Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and Citibank, KSR said. Zach Nathan joined as managing director from Colliers. His over-a-decade experience includes working with Ripco Real Estate. He’s represented owners and developers and has leased space to financial institutions, fitness operators, fashion brands, telecommunications giants, cultural institutions, international restaurant conglomerates and healthcare providers, KSR said, without specifying. Brandon Berger, with more than 13 years of industry experience, joined as a managing director from an in-house position overseeing retail leasing for a New York landlord, KSR said. Before that, among his duties was overseeing the Northeast expansion of the Mediterranean fast-casual restaurant chain Cava, which evolved to include the management of East Coast real estate for Cava and Zoe’s Kitchen following Cava’s 2018 acquisition of its rival, KSR said.

Trump's wealth has jumped $500 million since he left the White House

But 40 Wall Street has its own unique problems. Tenant departures meant occupancy slid to 77% in June, down from 98% in 2015. Its net operating income is only 61% of what was projected by underwriters. “There’s not a lot of leasing velocity down there,” said Albert Sultan, a broker at Kassin Sabbagh Realty. The Financial District used to offer a lower cost for tenants, but with Midtown rents declining, “there’s no reason to go downtown.”

From the door, I saw servers carting around trays of belly and jowl. Further back, customers mixed soju with beer, then violently combined them with metal spoons. For the first time in my life, Bryant Park was exactly where I wanted to be.

Ridgecut, Brennan Investment buy Sayreville industrial property for $23 million

A joint venture has acquired a truck facility and industrial outdoor storage property in Sayreville for more than $23 million, in a deal arranged by Kassin Sabbagh Realty. The buyers, Ridgecut Road and Brennan Investment Group, are now seeking tenants for the site at 700 Jernee Mill Road after completing the deal with American Truck & Trailer, which had owned and occupied the parcel for some 30 years.

More than 700,000 people use WeWork offices. What happens to them if the company shuts down?

Landlords might be willing to negotiate with the members who worked there, said Albert Sultan, a vice president at Kassin Sabbagh Realty, a commercial real estate firm. But, Sultan said, that’s more likely to happen with large companies that occupy a lot of space than with smaller organizations. “If a landlord has a Fortune 500 company in their space, they’re going to make a direct deal with the tenant,” he said. Amazon, for example, uses WeWork, and that’s a company landlords would be happy to host. For smaller companies or individual workers with WeWork memberships, deals for short-term leases would likely happen on a case-by-case basis, Sultan told Fortune. WeWork rents from a variety of landlords, all with different resources. And creating co-working spaces isn’t the business they are in.

Prologis buys TF Cornerstone’s Astoria development site for $35M

Prologis picked up another Queens industrial site, this one for $35 million, adding to its New York City portfolio. Prior to this, the San Francisco-based logistics company had spent $265 million acquiring properties through nine transactions over the past two years in the city. In this latest acquisition, the company purchased a 70,200 square feet development site at 38-21 12th Street in Astoria which has 351,000 square feet of development rights. The deal closed on November 3, 2021 and was recorded on November 16, 2021. This follows Prologis’s $42.7 million purchase of 46-81 Metropolitan Avenue in June as well as the $37.6 million purchase of 18-51 Flushing Avenue in January 2020, and the $51 million purchase of 48-00 Grand Avenue the previous November. TF Cornerstone bought the site in 2018 for $25.5 million. At that time it had a one-story industrial building but according to a recent Pinnacle Realty of New York listing for the site, the buildings have been demolished. Bunny Escava and Isaac Setton of Kassin Sabbagh Realty represented the buyer and seller on the transaction. The Real Deal reported in 2018 that a 152-key hotel was previously rumored as planned for the site, but TF Cornerstone released a statement at the time saying the company has no plans to change the zoning from industrial use. The property has 0 square feet of built space and 351,000 square feet of additional air rights for a total buildable of 351,000 square feet according to PincusCo analysis of city data. The sale price per buildable square foot is $99 per the PincusCo analysis. (The price per square foot analysis is the transaction price divided by square feet as reported in public records and assumes no air rights have been sold.) Plans for a 42,555 square-foot storage (S-2) were filed on September 7, 2018. Within a 400-foot radius of 38-21 12th Street, PincusCo identified three commercial real estate items of interests occurred over the past 24 months. Of those three items, one was for major renovation including a certificate of occupancy change. It was a permit issued on August 5, 2020 for the $1.9 million renovation of 19,669-square-foot S-1 building with no residential units at 38-50 21st Street. Of those three items, two were loans above $5 million totaling $24.2 million.

Storefront-Vacancy Rates Drop in These Manhattan Neighborhoods

“There’s a lot of activity,” says Claude Kolb, director of retail leasing for Kassin Sabbagh Realty. The broker received eight offers on one Second Avenue restaurant space he recently leased, and four offers on another. The biggest factor might be the Second Avenue subway, Mr. Kolb says. The awful construction period leading up to its 2017 opening kept the street’s storefront rents low at a time when rates were doubling in other parts of Manhattan. Asking rents now start at $140 a square foot, he says. On nearby Third Avenue, meanwhile, many landlords are holding out for $200 a square foot or more. “That’s why Third Ave. is still empty,” says Mr. Kolb of its 26% vacancy rate.
