Nine East Village Buildings Trade in $132M Sale
Ryco Capital’s recent East Village buying spree was bigger than previously known. The Halegua family’s Jonis Realty handed nine multifamily buildings to Ryco on Second Avenue between St. Marks Place and East 10th Street for $132 million, according to a source with knowledge of the deal and property records. The deal includes a trio of buildings at the southeastern corner of St. Marks Place that traded for $29 million, as Commercial Observer previously reported.
