NEW YORK CITY—Following its announcement this summer of a move from Detroit to New York City, Cadillac has selected 330 Hudson St. as its new global headquarters.

The car maker leased over 34,000 square feet on the glass-wrapped, top two floors of the 467,000-square-foot building. The class A office property—in the Hudson Square area of Midtown South—is owned Beacon Capital Partners along with partners Ivanhoé Cambridge and Callahan Capital Properties.

Brian Robin, SVP, responsible for asset management in the eastern region at Callahan Capital Properties, says, “We are thrilled to see Cadillac come to 330 Hudson. Hudson Square is among New York's most dynamic neighborhoods in which to live and work. The Cadillac team will enjoy the unique atmosphere and amenities that our tenants experience every day.”

“The addition of a headquarters office in New York is a key step in Cadillac's ongoing global expansion,” says Johan de Nysschen, Cadillac president. “There is no better atmosphere in which to better immerse ourselves into luxury consumer and brand expertise. We look forward to being a good neighbour there, starting in spring of 2015.”

The space on the 15th and 16th floors features 14-foot ceilings and 10-foot glass panel windows offering excellent natural light and views. John Nugent, vice chairman of CBRE, represented Cadillac in the lease negotiations. CBRE's Bob Alexander, David Maurer-Hollaender, Doug Lehman, Bruce Surry, Munish Viralam, Ross Zimbalist and Ben Fastenberg represented the landlord. CBRE did not respond to GlobeSt.com's request for comment by presstime.

330 Hudson St. is a 16-story, 467,000-square-foot Class-A office building that has been transformed by Beacon Capital Partners through its recently completed redevelopment, which included the addition of eight new column-free tower floors on a fully renovated historic, stone-and-brick base building.

After the Cadillac deal, the 14th floor is the only remaining office availability at the property. Offering 17,480 square feet, it is a newly-built tower floor featuring 14-foot ceilings and 10-foot glass that provide 360-degree views.The building's other large tenants are Pearson and TripAdvisor.
