A New York family that has invested in real estate for decades is putting a portfolio of Manhattan buildings up for sale as demand for prime spaces heats up.

The Duell family is seeking buyers for nine mostly retail properties — seven in Greenwich Village and two in Midtown — according to Darcy Stacom, a broker at CBRE Group Inc., which is representing the sellers. The “crown jewel,” Stacom said, is 5 E. 57th St., a tower just off Fifth Avenue with a David Yurman store at the base.
