Consolo & Aquino Sell Yet Another Madison Ave. Property; East Side Icon Stanley Lobel Acquires Petite Retail Condo as Investment Property From Dynamic Sales and Leasing Duo; Plans for Fashion Tenant
Madison Avenue retail sales and leasing leaders Faith Hope Consolo, Chairman, and Joseph Aquino, Executive Vice President of Prudential Douglas Elliman's Retail Group have arranged the sale of a multi-level retail condominium at 1086 Madison Avenue to Stanley Lobel, an owner of world-renowned Lobel’s Fine Meats. Located between 81st and 82nd Streets, the store comprises nearly 400 square feet at ground level with a 100-square-foot mezzanine and 700-square-foot lower level space.
The sales price was $1.75 million, approximately $4,471 per square foot, and represents one of the highest amounts paid for a retail condominium on the Upper East Side.
"Our buyer's family business has been a significant presence on this exclusive avenue for more than half a century, so he immediately understood the value of the location," pointed out Ms. Consolo. "We had several offers, in fact, but Mr. Lobel seized the moment and won."
Added Mr. Aquino "The store is on a rarified corridor that is both a shopping destination and cultural hub in the heart of the City’s most affluent family neighborhood. It understandably commanded a top sales price; and it is why we will have an A-list tenant for the space quickly."
Ms. Consolo and Mr. Aquino represented both the seller and buyer in the transaction.
