Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

394 Third Avenue presents a corner mixed-use development opportunity with three entirely fair market, low-rise apartment buildings currently containing three ground-floor retail units and seven residential units above. The site offers approximately 145 feet of wraparound frontage, positioned for retail exposure along Third Avenue and the opportunity to create a private residential lobby on the adjacent tree-lined side street.

The property is situated within favorable zoning districts, with the majority in a C2-8 district and a smaller portion of the lot area in an R8B zone. As-of-right development is described as approximately 37,825 buildable square feet, with the potential to enlarge development by 2.0 FAR through the acquisition of available IHB development rights, increasing maximum development potential to approximately 44,602 buildable square feet. The corner configuration and adjacency to a designated landmark to the west are described as benefiting a project with protected light and air on three sides.

Near-term vacant possession is indicated, as all residential leases expire by June 2017 and the last commercial lease expires in December 2017. The properties are reported to generate net operating income of approximately $370,017 annually.
