UFT Comes to Bay Plaza in the Bronx with 45,000-SF Office Lease
The United Federation of Teachers (UFT) has leased 45,000 square feet of office space at 2100 Bartow Ave., a four-story office building in the Co-op City area of the northeast Bronx. The UFT, which represents nearly 200,000 active and retired teachers and other professionals, will relocate its Bronx office from 2500 Halsey Ave. to 2100 Bartow, which was developed by Prestige Properties as part of the two-million-square-feet mixed-use Bay Plaza development in the Bronx.
JLL managing director Al Gutierrez and EVP Ian Ceppos represented the landlord in arranging the 20-year lease. The tenant was represented by Mark Boisi and Stephen Bellwood of Cushman & Wakefield and Neil Lipinski of Lipinski Real Estate.
“2100 Bartow Ave. provides the UFT with a revitalized office within a highly visible mixed-use development offering excellent transportation options, ample parking and affordable housing all within walking distance,” said Gutierrez.
