The lease has a term of 15.6 years, according to the release.
Property records show the entity that signed the lease, 100 Church Street Tenant LLC, is registered to the Florida address of a senior executive at Bahamas-based investment firm Tavistock Group. Tavistock did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
