Association of National Advertisers Increases Space at 10 Grand Central
The ANA signed a 15-year lease at Marx Realty’s recently repositioned Midtown East office tower at 155 E. 44th St.
NEW YORK CITY—Tenants are enjoying the recent renovations at Marx Realty’s 10 Grand Central with the Association of National Advertisers extending its lease in the building to 52,000 square feet. The trade association grew an additional 11,000 square feet, and will be on the second, third, fourth and eighth floors. They’ll expand into their new space in mid-June. The tenant committed to occupying the entire larger footprint with a 15-year lease.
A Marx Realty spokesperson states the asking rents in the building now range from $72 to $97 per square foot. Previously, rents had been $68 per square foot in the base, $75 per square foot in the mid-rise portion and $78 per square foot in the high-rise tower suites.
Ten Grand Central formerly had the address of 708 Third Ave. and currently has the alternate address of 155 E. 44th St. It’s situated between Third and Lexington avenues.
“Both current and prospective tenants have been exceedingly enthusiastic about 10 Grand Central’s special hospitality-infused offering,” says Craig Deitelzweig, Marx Realty’s president and CEO. “ANA’s expansion and recommitment to 10 Grand Central is a direct result of our successful repositioning.”
The building is now 89% leased. Representing a mix of industries, building tenants include Benenson Capital, White Oak, Equity Partners, Marks O’Neill, TRNC, PMC Treasure, World Federalist Movement, CGB, Global Source Partners and The Week. Plus, GlobeSt.com learned from an industry source that Seven Bucks Productions, “The Rock” Dwayne Johnson’s movie production company, is also in the building.
