Joshua Zamir and Daniel Ghadamian, managing principal and principal, respectively, of Capstone Equities, tells GlobeSt.com the terms of these new leases are five years for Gibson & Behman and three years for Newman Fitch. Asking rents were not disclosed, but are believed to range from the low $40s on lower floors to the high $40s per square foot on mid-level floors. Capstone co-owns 14 Wall with the Carlyle Group, its partner in a 2007 joint venture that acquired the Financial District property for $325 million.
