FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
American Realty Capital New York Recovery
REIT Purchases Manhattan Office Condominium for $91 Million
New York, New York, July 9, 2013
-
American Realty Capital New York Recovery REIT, Inc. ("NYRR") announced today the acquisition on July 5, 2013 of a three-story office condominium located at 50 Varick Street in the Tribeca
neighborhood of Manhattan for a purchase price of $90.8 million, exclusive of closing costs. The space contains 158,573
rentable square feet and is 100% leased to a subsidiary of Spring Studios Limited, which guarantees the lease. Spring Studios
Limited is a London-based leading provider of creative services to the world's top international fashion, beauty, and
luxury brands.
Michael A. Happel, Chief Investment Officer of NYRR, noted,
"The purchase of 50 Varick Street further demonstrates our ability to structure, negotiate and close complex
transactions at prices accretive to our distributions. This building is situated in the desirable Tribeca neighborhood of
Manhattan near the entrance to the Holland Tunnel, affording its tenants unobstructed and protected views of the Hudson
River. With the addition of this asset, we have created a portfolio totaling near $800 million, including properties owned
and announced for purchase. We remain focused on acquiring first-class New York City assets leased to top-quality tenants
with yields that are accretive to our distributions. We believe the buying opportunities in Manhattan and the five boroughs
continue to be very attractive, especially as the economy recovers and job growth occurs, and these positive trends place
upward pressure on rents".
