New York, NY JLL Capital Markets has completed a $14.336 million sale of 321 Lenox Ave., a six-story, mixed-use multi-housing and retail building that is home to the Corner Social Bar & Restaurant.

JLL arranged the sale on behalf of the seller, Delshah Capital LLC. The buyer was OSTB 321 Lenox Avenue, LLC.

It is situated on the corner of Lenox Ave. and West 126th St. within an Opportunity Zone.

The JLL Capital Markets team that completed the transaction included managing directors Hall Oster and Paul Smadbeck; vice presidents Teddy Galligan and Conrad Martin; and associate Braedon Gait.

“The adjacent retail corridors have proven their resilience throughout the pandemic, and an influx of new, post-pandemic retail tenancies, including both Target and Trader Joe’s, illustrates the high level of confidence that corporate retailers have in the area’s future as a thriving retail destination,” said Galligan.
