Manhattan, NY The Tri-State Investment Sales group for Avison Young completed sale of a 13,966 s/f vacant office condominium for $12.499 million.

“We continue to see strong demand for office condominiums of this size as more and more companies come to understand the benefits of owning their office space instead of leasing,” said Kevin Chisholm, founder and managing partner of 60 Guilders. “We’re thrilled to see DKCOS CORP. purchase another condominium within our portfolio as they enjoy the many benefits of property ownership.”

DKCOS CORP., a cosmetics company, purchased the space, whcih occupys the entire 10^th floor of a13-story office building at 20 West 33^rd St. between Fifth Ave. and Broadway.
