Law Firm Benesch Commits to 121K SF with Paramount Group

Paramount Group, Inc. said Thursday it had signed a 121,000-square-foot, 16.5-year lease with law firm Benesch, Friedlander, Coplan & Aronoff LLP at 1301 Ave. of the Americas, a 1.8-million-square-foot Class A office building in Midtown Manhattan. Of the 121,000 square feet, approximately 30,000 square feet is short-term.

“We are proud to welcome Benesch to 1301 Ave. of the Americas,” said SVP Douglas Neye. “This significant commitment is a testament to the building’s many appealing attributes and another example of the New York office market’s resurgence.”

He continued, “By joining our tenant roster, Benesch employees will benefit from the building’s central location and its amenity offerings, including membership to the Paramount Club. This members-only club, designed for tenants across our New York portfolio, remains a unique and valuable amenity in the market. With this agreement, 1301 Ave. of the Americas is 90% leased. We look forward to a long-term partnership with Benesch.”
