Stonehenge NYC Buys Luxury Upper East Side Building "The Cole"
NEW YORK, Feb. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Ofer Yardeni, Chairman and CEO of Stonehenge NYC in partnership with Stockbridge Capital Group, announced today that they have closed on the purchase of The Cole from Carmel Partners for $128.2 Million. The 164,000 sq ft building is 22 stories and contains 163 residential units with retail on grade. The Upper East Side building, located at 354 East 91st Street, was constructed in 2002 and will be rebranded as The Cole by Stonehenge.
The Hodges Ward Elliott commercial team which included Managing Directors Daniel Parker, Paul Gillen, Anthony Ledesma and Vice President Allie Boyan, arranged the sale as the exclusive brokers.
Stonehenge NYC sourced, underwrote, and led due diligence for the investment opportunity and will manage the property on the behalf of the Stonehenge NYC and Stockbridge joint venture. Stonehenge NYC plans to upgrade the building's apartments and amenities and will utilize its best-in-class property management team and lifestyle offerings to enhance the resident experience.
"We are excited to partner with Stockbridge, a world-class real estate private equity firm, on this opportunity. The acquisition of The Cole represents one of the very few 2000s-vintage, fully free-market assets to trade in recent years, and we look forward to providing a first-class experience to the residents in the building," said Ofer Yardeni, Chairman and CEO of Stonehenge NYC.
"Stockbridge has been an active investor in all the major metros across the United States. In 2021, we made a strategic decision to employ acquisitions efforts in Manhattan. We feel fortunate to have partnered with Stonehenge NYC, a best-in-class operator, in acquiring our first multifamily investment in the market. In addition to solid investment acumen, we share many of the same core values and an optimistic vision for future growth in New York City," said Stockbridge Managing Director Mark Carlson.
The Cole is situated on the corner of 1st Avenue and 91st street, in the charming neighborhood of Yorkville. The pet-friendly, doorman building is close to many of the Upper East Side's finest museums, restaurants, and shopping and only blocks away from the Second Avenue Subway. Amenities of the building include a package room, a private courtyard, an outdoor grill, on-site parking, a resident lounge, a billiards room, and a fitness center. The Cole will join 24 other buildings in the Stonehenge NYC portfolio.
