The parcels are along River Street and are designed for manufacturing and commercial uses, Crain's New York Business reports. If they were to be rezoned, they could potentially hold a residential development that includes an affordable housing component.

"It's a unique site that represents really the last large-scale development opportunity on the water in the neighborhood,” Cushman & Wakefield’s Stephen Palmese, who is marketing the properties with his colleague Brendan Maddigan, told Crain's.

The sites are one block from Two Trees Management’s Domino Sugar Refinery development. With a rezoning, Palmese said the site could support as much as 1.5M SF of development.
