Over the years, Alan Jemal has helped his team land multiple large deals on new properties. One example was their 2014 purchase of an office building in Harlem. Built in 1905, the building houses the historic Alhambra Ballroom, as well as several floors of additional commercial space. The Alhambra Ballroom was designed to be a vaudeville venue in its early days, hosting music legends such as Billie Holliday and Bessie Smith.

Today, the Alhambra Ballroom is still available as an event space, and one floor was recently renovated to house a new location for The French American Charter School.
