Cushman & Wakefield has arranged the sale of six multifamily properties in Manhattan, dubbed The Metro Portfolio, for a total of $64,675,000.
Robert M. Shapiro, Andrew Berry, Michael Gembecki, Charlie Gravina, Austin Fabel and Nicholas Kontos represented the seller, Metro Management, in each transaction.
“Our team executed a dynamic strategy to maximize value throughout the marketing process for each of these buildings,” said Shapiro. “We saw significant interest from a wide range of investors, which is no surprise considering these buildings are located in some of Manhattan’s most desirable residential neighborhoods which are poised to recover the quickest from the pandemic lows.”
This is the second sale from the original 13-building portfolio that Metro has sold this year. In August, it sold five properties from the collection that are located along the west side of Manhattan for $27 million in a deal also arranged by the same Cushman & Wakefield team.
