Coinbase Signs 67K SF at One Madison 

Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase signed an 11-year lease for 67,208 square feet across two floors at SL Green’s One Madison Avenue in the Flatiron District. The asking rent was not disclosed. 

Coinbase set a trend at the onset of the pandemic by declaring itself a “remote first” company in May 2020. Its revenue surged twofold that year to $1.3 billion amid Bitcoin’s soaring value. Subsequently, Coinbase made history as the first major cryptocurrency firm to go public in 2021. 

One Madison’s redevelopment, completed in September, attracted anchor tenants like IBM and Franklin Templeton Investments. JLL brokered both sides of the deal, with Paul Glickman, Benjamin Bass, Diana Biasotti and Alexander Chudnoff representing SL Green, while Todd Stracci and Steven Rotter arranged it for Coinbase.
