Most Ingenious Retail Deal of the Year<\/p>\n

REBNY<\/p>\n

The Real Estate Board of New York (REBNY)<\/a> announced on Wednesday the winners of its annual Retail Deal of the Year Awards, recognizing notable retail real estate<\/a> transactions and projects across NYC.<\/p>\n

The 28th annual event drew about 150 members and guests and was held at The Town Hall by Skylight in Midtown.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s winners included three projects in separate categories. The Most Ingenious Retail Deal of the Year went to Sean Moran, Patrick O\u2019Rourke, Catherine Merck and Steven Soutendijk of Cushman & Wakefield for their work on Urban Outfitters\u2019 transaction at 575 Fifth Ave.<\/p>\n

The deal required convincing Urban Outfitters to move from a corner to inline and embrace a store layout that required creative vertical transportation solutions, tight timelines, ADA issues, MEP upgrades, and doing all of that while the building was in the process of being sold.<\/p>\n

\u201cWinning one of REBNY\u2019s prestigious Retail Deal of the Year awards for the third consecutive year is an incredible honor and a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team,\u201d Moran said. \u201cMore importantly, it reflects the trust our clients continue to place in us and the strong partnerships that we\u2019ve built together.\u201d<\/p>\n

Merck added, \u201cWe\u2019re proud to work alongside our clients to navigate some of the most complex challenges in New York City real estate and develop thoughtful, creative solutions that deliver positive outcomes for all parties involved. We\u2019re grateful for their continued confidence in our team and honored to see that work recognized once again.\u201d<\/p>\n
