The company will occupy approximately 50,000 sf, making it one of the largest tenants in the building, owned by Rockrose Development Corp. The Staubach Co. represented Kingdon in the deal.

Paul Revson, a principal with the Staubach Co.'s New York City office, who led negotiations for the tenant, says that the additional space "will allow Kingdon to expand its New York operations and offers room for future growth." He was assisted by Chris Kraus, principal, Ethan Rice, director, and Larry Lazerwitz, managing director of Staubach. Chip Sealy of Rockrose Development Corp. assisted by William Cohen and Matt Leon of Newmark represented the landlord.

Kraus tells Globest.com that the tenant has been at the property since 1992 and is currently expanding. Although he could not provide aggregate lease values or taking rent at this time, he explains that asking rent is between $95 to $165 per sf. He tells GlobeSt.com that the lease term is 10 years.

Other prominent tenants at the property include Stonetower Capital, Grubman, Indursky & Schindler, Rho Capital and Healthcor Management, Kraus says. The building was built in 1990 and totals 547,000 rentable sf.
