NEW YORK CITY-In one of Lower Manhattan biggest transactions thus far in 2013, the law firm of Hughes, Hubbard & Reed has renewed its 226,416 square feet of office space at One Battery Park Plaza for another twenty years. Rudin Management Co. wholly owns the 36-story, 875,000 square-foot, class A building, following its buy-out of co-owner Rose Associates in early 2012.
Spanning nearly 11 floors, the firm's offices occupy the entire 10th through 18th floors, a portion of the seventh floor and a portion of the basement in the office tower. The organization has been based in Lower Manhattan for 75 years.
Hughes, Hubbard attorneys Sam Sultanik, Jillian Kane and COO Gerard Cruse represented the firm in the 20-year lease transaction, along with Newmark Grubb Knight Frank's Chris Mongeluzo, executive managing director and vice chairmen Neil Goldmacher and Mark Weiss. Rudin SVP and director of commercial leasing Thomas Keating represented the building owner.
