Starting this fall, St. John’s University will welcome students to its new Manhattan campus at 51 Astor Pl., in the East Village. The campus will be moving from its Tribeca location at 101 Murray St., which the university sold last year for $223 million (NYLJ, June 12, 2013).
St. John’s new 15-year lease was signed with an affiliate of Edward J. Minskoff Equities Inc. (EJM) for 71,000 square feet. The sleek new 12-story building with 400,000 square feet spans an entire block between Third and Fourth avenues.
