Millennium Towers Residences (30 West Street)

Millennium Towers Residences (30 West Street)

Millennium Towers Residences is a high-turnover Hybrid asset that serves as a performance leader in Battery Park City, outperforming the sub-neighborhood by 16.5%. The building’s health is anchored by its 2BR segment, which maintains steady resale volume and captures elite rental efficiency (~$90/SF). While the building has demonstrated robust compounding appreciation since its 2007 launch, investors face significant "income leakage" in the rental market for specific lines ('C' and 'E') and severe liquidity risk in the 1BR sector where marketing periods can exceed 500 days. Opportunity lies in high-floor 'F' and 'E' stacks with proven line persistence, while risk is concentrated in lower-floor units with chronic market lag.

The Broad Exchange Building (25 Broad Street)

The Broad Exchange Building (25 Broad Street)

The Broad Exchange Building (25 Broad Street) is a Yield-Oriented (At Risk) asset that offers strong rental cash flow ($70–$75 PPSF) but is currently a weak vehicle for capital appreciation. Post-sponsor analysis reveals a dual market: the Sponsor continues to clear "No Listing" inventory at premium prices ($1,200–$1,300 PPSF) in 2025, while the organic resale market trades at a structural discount ($1,000–$1,100 PPSF). This gap, combined with resale absorption times often exceeding 100 days, indicates that early buyers are facing negative real returns compared to the NYXRCSA benchmark. The building is best suited for income-focused investors who can acquire units at the distressed resale basis, not the sponsor's primary price.

W Downtown Hotel & Residences (123 Washington Street)

W Downtown Hotel & Residences (123 Washington Street)

123 Washington Street is a Yield-Oriented (At Risk) asset that functions as a high-churn rental factory but a capital destruction vehicle for long-term owners. Post-sponsor analysis reveals a catastrophic trend of negative appreciation, with resale units in 2024–2026 consistently trading 20% to 40% below their 2012–2014 purchase prices. While the building generates reliable rental income with nominal PPSF near $90, the liquidity shift (resale DOM > 130 days) and sponsor price normalization have trapped equity. Opportunity exists strictly for cash-flow investors buying at the new distressed basis ($1,000–$1,200 PPSF), but the asset has failed to capture any of the market growth reflected in the NYXRCSA benchmark.
