In the third quarter of 2023, the Company closed on the acquisition of a prime retail asset located at the northeast corner of North 6th Street and Wythe Avenue in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York, for $26.4 million.

The estimates set forth above may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors, including continued impacts of pandemics on our business and our market, our ability to complete planned capital improvements in line with budget, costs of integration of completed acquisitions, costs associated with future acquisitions or other transactions, straight-line rent adjustments and the amortization of above and below-market leases. There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth above.
