Lincoln james Capital represented Asset Realty & Construction Group, Inc. in the leasehold acquisition by Stellar Management and Imperium Capital of 220 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
Kathy Anderson of Progress Capital negotiated the transfer of the leasehold interest in 220 Fifth Avenue from a subsidiary of Asset Realty & Construction Group, Inc. to a joint venture between Stellar Management and Imperium Capital.

As part of its capital improvement program, Stellar and Imperium will renovate the lobby and update and modernize the building systems. The partnership is also completing high-end, custom pre-builds for turn-key office space. There are currently six full floors available for lease comprising approximately 9,000 RSF each.
“The location is unbeatable and we are excited to begin upgrading the base building and amenities to offer this as a premium office space for tenants,” Matthew Lembo, a principal at Stellar Management. “This coveted building anchoring the corner of 26th and Fifth Avenue is a jewel of the red hot Madison Square Park submarket,” Morris Mishan of Imperium Capital.
