TF Cornerstone’s 60-story Carnegie Hall Tower, at 152 West 57th Street, has part of its 58th floor occupied for another 10 years: Parkview International is staying put.

The Hong Kong-based developer renewed its 9,000-square-foot lease with brothers Tom and Fred Elghanayan. Asking rent was $120 per foot. Newmark Grubb Knight Frank broker Matt Leon and TF Cornerstone’s Palmer Sealy represented the landlord; CBRE broker Silvio Petriello represented Parkview International.
