Peter Riguardi, president of JLL's New York office, will oversee the assignment at 1330 Sixth Ave. Completing the team will be Frank Doyle, international director; Cynthia Wasserberger, managing director, and David Kleiner, SVP, all with JLL's New York office. Riguardi calls the tower "the pre-eminent boutique office building on Sixth Avenue" in a release.

According to the release, JLL will pursue an "aggressive" marketing campaign for the building that will feature pre-built spaces on the larger base floors and on the top floors. The base floors contain approximately 16,300 square feet of space apiece and the tower floors offer about 10,000 square feet each.
