RPW Group President Robert P. Weisz tells GlobeSt.com that the law firm Oxman, Tulis, Kirkpatrick, Wayatt & Geiser LP has signed a lease for 10,000 sf of space at its 120 Bloomingdale Rd. building. The merger of several area law firms precipitated this law firm's move here, Weisz related.
In addition, Zoho, a hotel reservation subsidiary of Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide Inc., has signed on for 11,000 sf of space at the building. Rounding out the recent deals, the building owner -- the RPW Group of Mount Vernon -- will occupy 4,000 sf of space at the property.
Newmark & Company Real Estate represented RPW in the Oxman and Zoho deals. Howard Properties of White Plains and Rand Realty represented Oxman and Zoho respectively. Weisz relates that the company purchased the building about 18 months ago and has since turned the former vacant building completely around.
He also reveals the New York State Board of Workers Compensation has taken occupancy of 6,000 sf of space at its 99 Church St., building. Recently, Berkeley College signed a lease for 55,000 sf of space at the property.
"We have another nearly 60,000 sf under contract with three tenants," Weisz says. He adds that at least at his properties there is no evidence of a slowdown in this market and the surrounding area. "Our biggest issue right now is finding available properties (for sale) in Westchester County."
