SL Green Inks Two Madison Avenue Deals

NEW YORK CITY-Longtime tenant Ambassador Construction Co. has renewed its 13,784-square-foot lease on the 12th floor of SL Green Realty Corp.’s 317 Madison Ave., and Horizon Media has subleased 40,759 square feet at Vornado Realty Trust’s 330 Madison Ave. in a deal arranged by SL Green Leasing.

In a release, Steve Durels, EVP and director of leasing and real property at the office REIT, says “Ambassador has been a long-term building tenant and we’re delighted that they have chosen to extend that relationship.” The renewal by Ambassador, an interior construction company, increases the occupancy at the 485,641-square-foot 317 Madison to 98%.
