ESRT Partners on Well Living Lab Alliance

Empire State Realty Trust (ESRT) will join the Well Living Lab Alliance, a global consortium to support the advancement of knowledge of how indoor environmental quality affects health and well-being. The alliance also includes Cushman & Wakefield, Hines and Delos, which has partnered with the Mayo Clinic on the Well Living Lab.

“With a leading organization such as Empire State Realty Trust, we are excited about the opportunity to extend the Well Living Lab’s pioneering research at the intersection of health, building and behavioral sciences and address today’s most pressing public health concern,” said Paul Scialla, Delos founder and CEO.

ESRT will provide its expertise in building operations and management, along with insights on tenant engagement and perception in a post-COVID-19 environment. The REIT will also enroll its entire portfolio in the WELL Health-Safety Rating program, offered by the International WELL Building Institute, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Delos.
