A lowrise retail and office building at West Broadway and Ash Street has sold for $38,888,888 to a Chinese investor. The 34,600 SF building was sold by TPMG Capital, a long-time owner. The property is 31,250 SF in size and is zoned C-3A which allows a density of 3.0 FSR, but only for commercial use in this sub-area, this equates to $415 per buildable SF. The main retail tenant is Rogue, which has a long-term lease.

In 2011, Seaspan was awarded a contract to build 17 non-combat ships on the adjacent site.
