JLL Capital Markets arranges $53M sale of Lower Manhattan development site
NEW YORK, Jan. 7, 2026 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged the $53 million sale of 75–83 Nassau St., a development site located in the heart of Downtown Manhattan’s Financial District.
JLL represented the seller, New York-based investment firm Lexin Capital and negotiated directly with the buyer, Fulltime Management and Montgomery Street Partners, which plan to build a large-scale mixed-use project on the site, one of Manhattan’s last 421a-vested land parcels.
Assembled over several years by the seller, 75–83 Nassau St. is located steps from the Fulton Street transit hub in FiDi and offers approximately 275,000 square feet of permitted zoning floor area, including 225,000 square feet of residential space. The buyer plans a residential-led tower that includes ground-floor retail and second-floor commercial space.
The JLL Capital Markets team that arranged the sale was led by Andrew Scandalios, Ethan Stanton, Jonathan Hageman and Michael Mazzara.
With vested tax incentives and zoning flexibility, the site could yield approximately 265 apartment units in one of Manhattan’s most transit-connected and rapidly evolving neighborhoods. In its Q3 2025 Multi-Housing investment analysis, JLL reported effective rents across Manhattan exceed $4,450 per unit while vacancy remains tight at approximately 2.5%, reflecting sustained demand for well-located residential product.
In Lower Manhattan, new supply has moderated as construction starts and permitting have declined materially over the past year, further supporting rent growth and long-term fundamentals.
