Positioned mid-block on the south side of West 85th Street between Amsterdam and
Columbus Avenues, the property presents a unique opportunity for investors, developers,
educational institutions, religious organizations, embassies, and owner-users seeking
a presence in one of Manhattan’s most established and desirable neighborhoods.

The property consists of an approximately 38,838-square-foot building (as per City
Records) situated on a 6,575-square-foot lot with 75 feet of frontage. Formerly 
owned and operated by Manhattan Country School, the building will be delivered vacant,
providing future ownership with immediate flexibility for occupancy, repositioning,
or redevelopment.

“Opportunities of this caliber are exceedingly rare: a vacant, large-scale building
on the Upper West Side that is not encumbered by historic district regulations,”
said [Ryan Candel, Senior VP of Transactions ](https://www.bkrea.com/about/ryancandel)
at BKREA. “150 West 85th Street offers tremendous optionality for users, combined
with a premier location surrounded by some of Manhattan’s strongest residential 
and community infrastructure, said Ana Barrie, Managing Director.

The property is located within an R8B zoning district, which permits residential
and community facility uses. While the existing building exceeds the currently permitted
zoning envelope, BKREA’s Policy & Zoning SWAT Team has prepared a development memorandum
outlining several potential redevelopment, conversion, and repositioning scenarios.

The building benefits from exceptional light and air due to its adjacency to Louis
D. Brandeis High School – an uncommon feature for a mid-block property. The location
also offers immediate access to Central Park, Riverside Park, and the Upper West
Side’s major retail corridors.

Parties interested in participating in the bid process should contact BKREA for 
access to the offering materials,due diligence documentation, and bid package requirements.

All bids are due by **June 15th at 12:00 PM. No bids will be considered after this
deadline.**
