LinkedIn, which puts the networking in social networking, has expanded its footprint inside the Empire State Building, the New York Observer reported. The site signed a full-floor deal encompassing 31,196 square feet, which brings its total presence in the landmark tower to 109,719 square feet.
A CBRE team led by Sacha Zarba represented LinkedIn in the deal; Newmark Grubb Knight Frank’s William Cohen and Ryan Kass represented Malkin Holdings, the landlord.
LinkedIn first took 31,742 square feet on the 25th floor in 2011. Since that time, it has expanded to the 23rd, 24th and 39th floors. The site expanded to the 23rd floor last November, as previously reported.
The 102-story building is now reportedly fully leased from the 25th floor down. [NYO] —Zachary Kussin
