01

Canonical identity

This Public Seed keeps the building, reported 2015 buyer, current public management functions and historical aliases distinct. It preserves the 1918/1921 construction-year disagreement and makes no access, safety or dispatch inference.

Property typeOffice and retail
Management routeThe current building site lists Sterling Bay Property Management, and Sterling Bay says it retained leasing and property-management responsibilities after an April 2015 sale.
Ownership claimCurrent recorded legal title is not established. Sterling Bay reports a 2015 sale to J.P. Morgan Asset Management, but this is not treated as a current deed record.
LocationNot independently verified
02

Area claims stay separate

Gross, rentable, and office area are not interchangeable. Factum stores each measurement with its source meaning instead of choosing a convenient single number.

Management relationship

Sterling Bay's portfolio page says it retained leasing and property-management responsibilities after a reported April 2015 sale. This does not establish current legal title or authorize action.

Current portfolio page reviewed August 17, 2026

Construction-year conflict

The first-party site reports 1918; a third-party property listing reports 1921. Factum retains 1918 as the first-party assertion and leaves independent verification open.
