Another week, another large office tower achieving 100% occupancy.
Turner & Townsend, a multinational professional services company, signed a 12-year lease for 24,394 square feet at SL Green’s 100 Park Ave., a 36-story, 905,000 square-footer. Other major tenants include AlphaSights and Alvarez & Marsal Holdings.
Turner & Townsend is moving and expanding from 285 Madison Ave. The asking rent was $75 per square foot.
SL Green leasing director Steven Durels said the lease “reflects the on-going demand we’re seeing from tenants seeking high-quality office space near Grand Central Terminal.”
Turner & Townsend was represented by CBRE’s Mary Ann Tighe, Stephen Eynon and Alessia Lawson. The landlord was repped by Cushman & Wakefield’s Harry Blair, Barry Zeller, Justin Royce and Pierce Hance.
We’re usually grateful when Realty Check’s coverage is picked up elsewhere. But one citation last week made us queasy — in the Department of Justice’s drop of millions of Jeffrey Epstein files.
There we were in a DOJ file unearthed by my intrepid colleague Lois Weiss, who also found herself cited for a 2005 Page Six item she filed about actress Katheryn Winnick attending a party.
Suffice it to say that neither of us knew Epstein, flew on the arch-villain’s plane nor visited his notorious island. All Realty Check did to earn the DOJ’s attention was a routine story on Aug. 10, 2015, about a demolition to make way for the Second Avenue subway.
The DOJ dragnet also reeled in a Real Deal article on Aug. 18, 2015, about a different Upper East Side project. None of the stories even mentioned Epstein, so we can only wonder what the DOJ was after.
