Long Island City, NY Greiner-Maltz has completed the leasing of 21-03 44th Ave., for use as a museum of elevator artifacts. The museum, which is slated to open upon receiving approval by the NYS Board of Regents as a non-profit museum, will occupy all of the available space on the 2nd floor of this two-story, 30,000 s/f building.
In the leasing transaction arranged by Ryan Maltz, of Greiner-Maltz, the dream of the museum's founder, Patrick Carrajat, an elevator industry executive, will be fulfilled. Carrajat has been in the industry for 48 years. He first founded Century Elevator in 1973, went on to start Certified Elevator in the 1980s, and later created the LIR Consulting Group. As a noted consultant and industry expert, Carrajat saw a need to preserve the quickly diminishing supply of historical artifacts associated with the evolution of the elevator and escalator industry.
Working with Maltz, Carrajat focused his search for a suitable location in Long Island City, as it is the center for many elevator manufacturing and maintenance companies, as well as the close fit with other public venues such as MOMA's PS1 and numerous galleries and showrooms. The museum will also be in close proximity to Silvercup Studios and the CitiCorp Tower.

Ryan Maltz represented both the lessor (Exclusive Realty Services), and lessee (LIR Consulting Group) in this transaction. There is approximately 2,000 sf of remaining available space in this property, and it is available for $25.00 psf.
