Investment banking firm Needham & Co. signed a lease for almost 30,000 square feet at AEW Capital Management’s 250 Park Avenue.
The company, currently headquartered at 445 Park Avenue [TRDataCustom], inked an 11-year deal for 29,401 square feet, according to Cushman & Wakefield.
Cushman’s David Hoffman, who represented AEW along with colleagues Robert Billingsley and Whitnee Williams, said the building provided Needham with “close proximity to other financial industry leaders.”
Peter Goldich of Atco Brokerage Services negotiated on behalf of Needham & Co.
The deal brings the 21-story, 464,000-square-foot 250 Park to 98 percent occupancy.
AEW Capital last year bought a minority stake in Brookfield Property Partners’ One New York Plaza for $223.2 million, valuing the building at north of $1.4 billion. – Rich Bockmann
