NEW YORK CITY–The Rockefeller Group announced Monday the signing of a 187,000-square-foot lease with Mayer Brown at 1221 Avenue of the Americas, the 50-story office tower anchoring the western border of Rockefeller Center between West 48th and West 49th Streets.
Mayer Brown, a global legal services firm with a presence throughout the Americas, Europe and Asia, signed a long-term lease for the entire 11th through 14th floors of 1221 Avenue of the Americas. The firm, which has more than 200 lawyers in its New York office, will relocate to the building in late 2014.
Richard Spehr, partner-in-charge of Mayer Brown's New York office, says, “We are thrilled with our impending move to 1221 6th Ave. Our new space in this premier building will be designed to serve the needs of our global clients for years to come.”
