NEW YORK CITY-In yet another large lease deal, News America Inc. takes more than 100,000 sf to up its total to 794,000 sf at 1211 Sixth Ave. The company, parent of the New York Post, also upped its lease by five years to 2020 and added two floors to the company’s 13 office floors as well as ground and concourse space. Also, 37,500 sf News America occupied on the 28th floor was converted from a sublease. News America is the tower’s major tenant. A lease rate for the deal was not released, but one source says it involved “a lot of money.”

To complete the transaction, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants moved to a different floor in the site subleasing JP Morgan space. Cushman and Wakefield, which worked on the transaction on behalf of the building owner, could not comment on the deal. C&W brokers on the deal were Mitch Arkin, John Picco, John Gray and Peter Van Duyne. CB Richard Ellis represented News America.
