The buyer, Haddad Brands, reportedly plans to occupy a segment of the property and lease out the remainder of the space.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Newmark statement of sale, this change of hands was in line with a rising trend of occupier-owner transactions in which companies opt to purchase properties for a discount, rather than lease the space.<\/p>\n<p>Rising 29 stories above the corner of Park Avenue and East 33<sup>rd<\/sup> Street, Two Park Avenue is located a couple of blocks away from the Empire State Building and a short, 10-minute walk from both Grand Central and Penn stations.<\/p>\n<p>The property features floor plates between 3,950 and 49,631 square feet; above-standard ceiling height; and a little more than 1 million square feet of LEED Gold-certified rentable Manhattan office space that includes retail.
