The building needs some substantial work, and I can confirm that they have some substantial ideas to really address these deficencies. However, we'll see if they're really willing to go the distance on this one and carry through on the scale of these upgrades, especially in this kind of a leasing market.
It will be interesting to see what Aspen does. It fits their business model: buy undervalued assets, do some minor renovations, jack up rents on renewals and new tenants. That’s what they did at 444 – 5th and is what they are currently doing at 333 – 11th ave. This will be on a much large scale.
