NEW YORK CITY- Janus Property Company, a real estate development and management company based in New York City, has secured a 10-year lease for its West Harlem Manhattanville Factory District property dubbed the Sweets Building, a 200,000-square-foot former brewery redeveloped to include an office building.

The new tenant is national architect and design firm GLUCK+, who led the design of the Class-A office property. The Sweets Building features 125,000 square feet of office space on top of 75,000 square feet of renovated brewery space that preserves cast-iron columns, brick-vaulted ceilings and dramatic steel structures. The building is the new home of the prominent art gallery Gavin Brown's Enterprise.

"Janus and the Manhattanville Factory District have had a long and productive relationship with GLUCK+," said Scott Metzner, principal of Janus, in a prepared statement. "Not only was GLUCK+ an early adopter of the district, but the firm has been instrumental in the neighborhood's design and growth into one of New York's premier innovation clusters."

The Manhattanville Factory District is a master-planned neighborhood of more than one million square feet in West Harlem, developed by Janus and stretching from West 125th to West 128th streets. The neighborhood is accessible from the train hub on Amsterdam Avenue where the A, B, C, D and 1 trains operate. Columbia University, Columbia Medical Center, City College, New York Structural Biology Center and Harlem Biospace anchor the district, which offers additional open space to the industrial neighborhood.
