SL Green purchased the 359k SF Class-B asset on "Club Row" in '05 for $105.5M, one of its strategic plays in identifying and purchasing well-located and undervalued assets. The $33.2M in net proceeds generated by the sale will be reinvested in connection with SL Green's recently announced consolidation of the fee interest at The Lipstick Building. The buyers plan a comprehensive $12M capital improvement program to further upgrade the building, which is 87% leased to a diverse group of tenants with staggered lease expirations. CBRE's Darcy Stacom and Bill Shanahan repped SL Green in the deal, which is targeted to close in Q2.
