LARGEST LEASE; MULTIFAMILY MONDAY

Before we jump into multifamily, we’d like to focus on 245 Park Ave. Only a month after its $800M refi, the office tower owned by Brookfield Office Properties is the recipient of Manhattan’s largest lease in ‘10.
Société Générale inked a 20-year, 444k SF deal in the building, and will occupy floors 3-12 beginning in mid-2013. The agreement also provides expansion options, a dedicated reception desk, signage, and other significant rights.
