NEW YORK CITY-Vornado Realty Trust has completed the previously announced sale of Harlem Park, a parcel of land on 1800 Park Ave., at 125th street, for $66 million plus additional amounts which may be received for brownfield credits.

The sale resulted in net proceeds of approximately $63 million and a net gain of approximately $23 million, which will be recognized in the fourth quarter.

Vornado had planned to build an office tower on the site, but it scrapped that plan back in 2008 when, according to a spokesman, the company decided “the economics are not warranted today to do that job.”
