Three High-Quality Potential Sites for Investment

From June through September 2015, the Public Building Inventory workgroup searched a database of city-owned properties and narrowed down a list of 84 to 3 very promising potential sites of investment based on factors such as proximity to retail and public transportation, flood zone status, and size and condition of the buildings.

Here are the potential sites:

1) 106 Locust Avenue, Bronx

In Port Morris, a historic ferry gantry and cable shop on desirable waterfront property.

2) 146-39 105th Avenue, Queens

This building is owned by the NYC Department of Health. Nested in a residential area, this is a non-commercial zone that may be off the speculator radar.
