Brooklyn continues to drive New York City's real estate momentum, topping the charts with major deals across both residential and commercial markets. On August 5, the standout transaction was Rabsky Group’s sale of The Garnett, a mixed-use building in South Williamsburg, for $82.5 million. The 11-story property, which includes 113 apartments, was purchased by Pacific Urban Investors, who secured a $41.2 million loan from Newmark to close the deal.
Another major Brooklyn transaction took place in North Williamsburg, where a joint venture of Rockpoint Group, Lincoln Property Company, and Land Labor Capital acquired a newer apartment complex at 56 North Ninth Street for $66.3 million. This property, developed in 2019, includes 30,000 square feet of retail space and was financed with a $44.8 million mortgage from Truist Bank.
In the residential sector, luxury sales surged. The top residential deal was a $24 million resale of a 66th-floor condo at Extell’s Billionaires’ Row tower on West 57th Street—transferring between LLCs and significantly up from its previous 2021 sale. Park Slope also saw two townhouses change hands: a brownstone at 45 Park Place sold for $6.5 million, and a three-story home on Ninth Street sold for $4.4 million.
Overall, NYC recorded 238 property transactions on that day alone, totaling over $426 million in sales. With Brooklyn continuing to deliver strong performance in both residential and commercial markets, it remains a hotspot for investors, developers, and high-end buyers alike.
