Catsimatidis cashing in on hot market
Supermarket billionaire and former mayoral candidate John Catsimatidis is cashing in on the buoyant Northern Manhattan sales market.
HFF announced it is marketing a vacant 10,000 s/f lot at 1040 St. Nicholas Avenue, which city tax records show belongs to the Gristedes Foods chairman, whose real estate holdings operate under the banner Red Apple Group.
“The current owner is looking to sell because the market up there is much better,” said Eric Anton, a senior director at HFF who is marketing the site with colleague Andrew Scandalios.
