Tommy Hilfiger Expands Madison Ave. HQ

Tommy Hilfiger has expanded its corporate headquarters at RFR Realty’s 285 Madison Ave. The apparel and accessories giant took an additional 14,054 square feet, and will now occupy approximately 220,000 square feet at the Midtown office property.

Additionally, global financial technology company Quantitative Brokers, LLC signed a new lease for 7,070 square feet at the tower. With these leases, the property, which RFR acquired in 2012, is nearing full occupancy.

“Following our successful efforts to modernize and transform the property, we have experienced a tremendous response from both existing and new corporate space users,” said AJ Camhi, RFR SVP and director of leasing.

JLL’s Matthew Astrachan, Mitchell Konsker and Steven Bauer represented Tommy Hilfiger parent PVH Corp. in negotiations. Sam Seiler of JLL acted on behalf of Quantitative Brokers. In both deals, JLL’s Konsker, Alexander Chudnoff, Dan Turkewitz and Diana Biasotti represented ownership, along with Camhi and RFR’s Ryan Silverman.
