Mendell of Greenwich Development Partners recently acquired the building and plan extensive renovations to reposition it as a three-story, 25,000-square-foot, Class A office building.

NGKF Managing Director Allan Murphy said the final product will “have a look and feel similar to high-tech conversions that are occurring in Soho, Tribeca, and Brooklyn.”
