Hot market for building sites draws crowd

[...]

Meanwhile, JLL is also in the process of selling a development parcel zoned for 32,000 square feet in NoHo, at 363 Lafayette St. The site allows for commercial space, but JLL's marketing materials suggest that a variance could be secured allowing for residential space to be built. The site is also a strong location for boutique office and retail space.

Lastly, the owner of a property on the Upper West Side at 200 Amsterdam Ave. has put it on the block with an asking price of more than $400 million. Zoning would allow for the tallest building in the neighborhood, a 388,000-square-foot, 600-foot residential tower. CBRE is marketing the property and notes that the tower enjoys protected views of Central Park.
