Take-Two Interactive, the software company behind video games like Grand Theft Auto and BioShock, signed a 15-year lease for 61,383 square feet at Durst Organization’s building at 1133 Sixth Avenue.
The company will take the entire second and third floors of the 1.1 million-square-foot building, the Commercial Observer reported. Asking rent in the deal is $82 per square foot, and includes giving the company its own entrance on West 44th Street and 7,000 square feet of outdoor space.
The deal sees Take-Two moving from its current office at 622 Broadway, where it leases about 82,256 square feet, according to the publication.
Cushman & Wakefield’s [TRDataCustom] David Rosenbloom and Maria Travlos represented Take-Two in the deal. Tom Bow, Rocco Romeo, Ashlea Aaron and Tanya Grimaldo of Durst represented the landlord in-house.

In April, casualty insurer the Chubb Corporation took two additional floors at the building, expanding its footprint there to 184,000 square feet.
