Gary Barnett's Extell Development Group has closed on the purchase of one of the most sought-after buildings in Midtown Manhattan.

Extell paid $247M to acquire a 39% stake in 1710 Broadway with plans to demolish and redevelop it into a 60-story hotel-condo at West 54th St. and Seventh Avenue in a JV with C&K Properties, The Real Deal report.
