O5 Group added 185-189 Grand Street at the corner of Mulberry Street in Little Italy, home to Italian American Museum, to its commercial real estate portfolio.
Oved Group and Nexus Building Development Group have purchased 185-189 Grand Street at the corner of Mulberry Street in Little Italy, home to Italian American Museum, for $14.8 million, a source with knowledge of the deal told Commercial Observer. The transaction closed last Friday, Joseph Oved of Oved Group confirmed. Oved did the deal directly with the museum, the 10,536-square-foot property’s owner.
The new owners plan to develop a Morris Adjmi Architects-designed 12-unit apartment building (comprising 25,000 square feet) at the site with 3,500 square feet of retail at the base. After closing for two years, the museum will occupy a new and larger (about 6,000 square feet) primarily below-grade condominium unit, the source said.
Oved will control the retail portion while Nexus will oversee the residential aspect. There were no brokers involved in the transaction, Oved said.
