NEW YORK CITY-As a 250,000-sf minimum, the building currently known as 636 11th Ave. may soon be a little bit more fun to be around. Two toy manufacturers have signed on for space in the building and hopefully create a new Manhattan toy center.

The two companies, Spin Master and Mega Brands, have committed to a total of 18,000 sf at the Eleventh Avenue. There is a July 31 deadline for the industry to commit to a minimum of 250,000 sf in signed leases. The building was first presented to the industry in a series of meetings that began June 20. Spin Master has signed on for 6,000 sf of space in the new building, while Mega Brands committed to 12,000 sf.
