In the summer of 2003

Peter R. Fontanetta, assistant director of commercial real estate leasing for Trinity, represented the owners, while Postworks, New York handled its own negotiations. PostWorks list of clients includes HBO, Viacom, VH-1, MTV, ABC News, National Geographic, directors Barry Sonnenfeld, Mike Nichols and Sydney Lumet and the London-based editorial company Final Cut.

In another Hudson Square deal, Common Cause/NY signed on for 3,880 sf for its executive offices at Trinity's 155 Ave. of the Americas. Trisha Gerry and David Silberberg of Spaceworks represented the non-partisan, non-profit citizen's lobby group.

Trinity executives attribute the popularity of the area to its "high-quality spaces, competitive rents and diversified tenants rosters." They also cite the increasing amount of retail and restaurants in the neighborhood, not to mention some of the newest residential properties-- 505 Greenwich and 255 Hudson, among them. Prices in the Trinity portfolio range from $26 to $35 per sf.
