Preet Sabharwal, Michael Scali and Sabrina Kortlandt of Marcus & Millichap’s Manhattan office secured the exclusive listing to market the property on behalf of the seller and procured the buyer in the transaction as well. Todd Lindblom acted as the broker of record.

“This sale of a Hobby Lobby with less than 10 years remaining to an institutional buyer signifies that although retail is shifting, big box is not dead.” said Kortlandt. “Institutional groups are still bullish on these opportunities with large companies that have strong financials”
