D.F. King Takes 26,000 SF at 48 Wall St.

NEW YORK CITY-New York-based D.F. King signs for 26,000 sf in the luxury office tower at 48 Wall St., pushing the building occupancy to 79%. The prominent financial solicitation firm takes the entire 21st, 22nd and 23rd floors in an 11-year.

Kent M. Swig, principal of Swig Burris Equities, LLC, and owner of the 34-story, 340,000-sf tower tells GlobeSt.com that leasing activity at 48 Wall St. has remained resilient to the market downturn post-Sept. 11. “We’re seeing a strong following from tenants in our building, despite the falloff in the downtown market since last fall,” he says. Swig. Swig Burris Equities, LLC bought the building in 1998 in association with MacDonald & Cie.
