SFA Agency Extends, Expands Tenancy at One Battery Park Plaza

Rudin said Tuesday that current tenant SFA Agency LLC will grow its footprint at One Battery Park Plaza, a 35-story, 800,000- square-foot office tower in Lower Manhattan. SFA Agency, an affiliate of Northwestern Mutual, will now occupy 14,071 square feet in a 10-year lease extension. A tenant at One Battery Park Plaza since 2023, the financial services company will expand by 5,170 square feet and relocate in early 2027.

“SFA Agency’s long-term extension and expansion is a direct reflection of our commitment to superior customer service,” said Kevin Daly, VP of office leasing at Rudin. “As evidenced by the leasing success this year and reaching virtual full occupancy at One Battery Park Plaza, there remains a strong and growing market appetite for well-located and high-quality office space in Lower Manhattan.”

Daly represented building ownership in the transaction. Scott Vinett of Savills represented SFA Agency. One Battery Park is now 99% leased.
