Fairstead Capital announced the purchase of Savoy Park Apartments, a 1,790-unit, 10.5-acre multi-family campus in Central Harlem for $315 million. The purchase represents Fairstead’s continued support for New York City affordable housing and the company’s long-term belief in Harlem. The property was sold by an investor group that includes L+M Development Partners and Savanna.

Fairstead plans to make significant improvements to the property including upgraded security systems, improved public spaces and landscaping and modern renovations to all interior common spaces.
