Paul Wexler and Josef Yadgarov of Wexler Healthcare Properties at The Corcoran Group negotiated the deal. The asking rent was $85 per square foot, according to a spokeswoman for the Corcoran duo.

Simone Development owns the medical condo unit.

“This transaction was a perfect opportunity for the hospital as it is located one block away from their main entrance,” said Patricia Simone, vice president of leasing and operations at Simone Development, in a prepared statement.

North Shore-LIJ acquired Lenox Hill Hospital in May 2010, giving the Long Island health care system entrée to Manhattan.
