Law Firm Relocates, Expands within Graybar Building
Avison Young’s New York City office arranged a 27,000-square-foot lease for the law practice of Wingate, Russotti, Shapiro & Halperin, LLP at SL Green Realty Corporation’s 420 Lexington Ave., also known as the Graybar Building. The law firm previously occupied 17,500 square feet elsewhere in the Midtown office tower.
New York-based Avison Young principals Michael Gottlieb and Marty Cottingham and New Jersey-based principal William McCaffrey represented the tenant, a personal injury law firm. Ownership was represented in-house by Larry Swiger and Elaine Anazagasty.
“In advising Wingate, Russotti, Shapiro & Halperin LLP, we were able to secure newly available office directly across the hall from its former headquarters, providing the firm with nearly 10,000 square feet of additional space to support its continued growth trajectory,” said Gottlieb. “The firm’s lease expansion represents its steadfast commitment to New York City and 420 Lexington Ave. as its headquarters location.”
