January 13, 2012 Weather: Windy, High of 41 Degrees.

News:
UDR, a Colorado-based real estate company, and insurance company MetLIfe just bought Columbus Square, the massive glassy five-tower rental apartment complex that also houses Whole Foods and other big retailers between 97th Street and 100th Street. They paid $630 million for the development, which has 710 apartments with average rents of $3,924. The owners, Chetrit Group and Stellar Management, bought the land from Leona Helmsley in 2000 for $122 million. Will rents go up? UDR hasn’t said, but it’s hard to imagine they won’t. (Thanks to Daren for the tip on this.) (BusinessWeek)
