Four of New York's biggest office landlords—Silverstein Properties, L&L Holding, Vornado and Taconic Properties—are among the top contenders expected to bid on the massive slate of Jehovah's Witnesses-owned properties in Dumbo and Brooklyn Heights.

The bids come on the heels of planned move to Warwick, N¥, where the group is headed after nearly half a century, leaving behind a portfolio that includes its 733k SF Watchtower world HQ at 25-30 Columbia Heights, The Real Deal reports.
