Getty Realty Puts Six New York Area Industrial Redevelopment Sites Up for Bid Through NRC

CHICAGO, January 8, 2013 -- Getty Realty Corp. has retained NRC Realty & Capital Advisors, LLC to coordinate its divesture of six industrial sites with potential redevelopment use. The properties are located in Long Island City, Bronx/Mt Vernon, Catskill, Port Ewen and Rhinebeck, NY and Newark, NJ. All are former fuel distribution terminals.

Land sizes range from 2 acres to 15 acres. Published minimum bids range from $400,000 to $3 million.

"These sites are strategically located and adaptable for a variety of industrial or other uses," said Evan Gladstone, NRC's executive managing director. "The Newark site is at Exit 15E of the New Jersey Turnpike with barge access on the Passaic River, and the Long Island City and Bronx/Mt. Vernon sites could have retail or other commercial potential."

"While we expect some interest from parties seeking to use these properties as terminals, these properties are in urban areas which are actively being redeveloped so we expect much more excitement to come from developers looking to re-purpose the locations." Joshua Olshin, Managing Partner of Auction Advisors, who is working with NRC on the LIC, Bronx and Newark properties.

The properties will be sold using NRC's sealed bid sale process. NRC will be coordinating property viewings. Property Specific Packages (due diligence packages) are expected to be available in mid-January, with a bid deadline of March 7, 2013. Broker cooperation is encouraged, and a 3-percent broker co-op commission is being offered.
