Audacy Looks To Sublease 32K SF Of Market West Office Space: The Philadelphia Deal Sheet
A radio conglomerate is looking to sublease roughly half of its office space in a building overlooking the Schuylkill River.
Audacy’s 32K SF on the fourth floor of the Aramark-branded building at 2400 Market St. is being marketed by Binswanger. Its 2019 lease for the space runs through 2034.
The company will keep its headquarters in the building, which includes studios for six local radio stations serving Greater Philadelphia.
Audacy filed for bankruptcy in early 2024 before it was purchased and taken private by a group of investors led by Soros Fund Management.
“Philadelphia remains an important part of Audacy, and these changes align our office needs with teams on hybrid work schedules,” Audacy spokesperson David Heim told the Philadelphia Business Journal.
