to a variety of credit tenants, including NYU Langone, a Fortune 500 Subsidiary, and a major regional education services provider.
“Caerus emphasis on layouts, use of space and location selection continues to play out in 2019. The team saw an opportunity to capitalize on great buildings and locations, and our effort was rewarded with appreciation from credit-rated tenants and quick absorption as a result,” said Leo Tsimmer, senior managing partner at Caerus Group.
“The sponsor has done an incredible job redeveloping and leasing the assets, creating two best-in-class office buildings in the high-growth submarkets of Long Island City and Northern Brooklyn.
