The refinancing follows a 633,000-square-foot lease renewal in October by New York University’s Langone Medical Center. The lease was among the largest deals signed in 2020, according to Colliers International.
Other major tenants include Robert A.M. Stern Architects and Equinox.
Vornado acquired its initial equity stake in the building in 2011. Canada Pension Plan had joined as a partner after that, and now owns a 45 percent stake. [CO] — Akiko Matsuda
