••• “A development site in Lower Manhattan that investor Sam Zell tried to purchase two years ago has been acquired by Hidrock Realty for $28.5 million, The Commercial Observer has learned. The vacant parcel, located at 133 Greenwich Street, can accommodate up to about 150,000 square feet of hotel or commercial development. According to sources, residential space can also be built, but the density of the development must be reduced for that type of project, according to the zoning at the site.”
