Long Island City Gets Corporate Headquarters

Schweiger Dermatology Group will move their corporate headquarters to the Long Island City neighborhood of Queens.

The dermatology group will fill 21,463-square-feet — the entire 10th floor — at 27-01 Queens Plaza North, in one of the market’s largest transactions this year. The firm will leave behind an 8,000-square-foot space in Midtown Manhattan.

“We targeted the outer-borough market in order to take advantage of the economic incentives that are available for companies moving from Manhattan, and Long Island City proved to be a perfect fit,” said Ryan Gessin, associate director for Newmark Knight Frank, which represented the tenant.

The new agreement is a long-term sublease from MetLife Inc., which currently occupies approximately 200,000 square feet in the building.  MetLife Inc. was represented by Cushman & Wakefield.
