48 Wall St. to Open in 45 Days With 50% Occupancy

NEW YORK CITY-The landmark 48 Wall St., owned by Swig Burris Equities and MacDonald & Cie, will be open for business in about a month after undergoing a major face-lift with over 50% of the building occupied after a new 10,000-sf lease was just inked late last week. In addition, commitments are in place to bring the building up to 60% before opening.

“We just signed John W. Bristol & Co. for the entire 18th floor, 9,325 sf,” Kent M. Swig, principal of Swig Burris, tells GlobeSt.com. “The firm is an 80-year-old investment and money manager. Also, they are a very old-line, secure company, which we thought would fit nicely with what we’re looking to do with the building.”
