Blackstone has struck a deal to acquire a retail portfolio in the SoHo submarket of Manhattan for $197.5 million.
The collection of properties includes four assets, taking up 131,000 square feet in total. The names of the properties were not clear but they are leased to office boutique and retail brands including ECCO, Ganni, Comcast Ventures, and Amiri.
