Brad Zackson:

Zackson was instrumental in buying three large property assemblages in Long Island City, New York. The first building, 23-10 Queens Plaza South, has been converted into a 44-story rental skyscraper with 391 units with plans for further commercial development. The second project dubbed the “Clock Tower Building,” was a creative assembly of two nearby sites held by separate owners, the hurried purchase of MTA air rights to produce a 1 million developable square foot site with a 15-year 421a and no affordable component necessary. Brad Zackson coordinated the purchases, zoning lot merging, and other essential “paper” development parts that are to be concluded before the initial 421a deadline.

Sellers:

The third property acquired through an off-market transaction and cordial discussion with a non-seller. Brad Zackson was to meet the seller’s demands by agreeing to a sale leaseback. The seller agreed to enable Zackson to complete the necessary work to get a 421a Tax Abatement under the statutes that were extended six months over the deadline. With an upcoming up-zoning in the neighbourhood, Zackson’s concept has resulted in a high-value boost.

Number Of Boards:

Zackson, a New York City native, is involved in civic and political circles in the city. He has served on several boards, including the Central Park Conservancy, New York CARES, the Association of Builders and Owners (ABO), and the Jewish Museum of New York. Zackson vouchsafes the Ellis Island Medal of Honour.
