AmTrust RE inks lease with Rose & Rose for 14,067 s/f

Manhattan, NY AmTrust RE has finalized a lease with Rose & Rose for 14,067 s/f of space at 250 Bdwy., the firm’s office tower in Lower Manhattan. AmTrust’s Anne Holker and a CBRE team of Brad Gerla, Michael Rizzo, and Alex Benisatto represented the landlord in the transaction, while Jacob Wolkenfeld of Norman Bobrow & Company Inc. represented the tenant.

“The office leasing market, both in Manhattan and nationwide, has shown steady growth despite recent economic challenges,” said Jonathan Bennett, AmTrust RE’s president. “With major tech companies and other employers reinforcing ‘return to office’ mandates, and law firms driving demand for class-A, amenitized spaces, we anticipate continued recovery into 2025. Rose & Rose’s decision to lease at 250 Broadway underscores both the resilience of the market and the success of our efforts to elevate this premier property.”

Rose & Rose is a full-service New York City law firm representing some of commercial real estate’s most influential players. The firm’s portfolio spans the full spectrum of the real estate market, from owners and developers to buildings under the U.S. Housing and Urban Development public housing and affordable housing programs, as well as condominiums and privately owned co-ops.

Directly across from City Hall Park, AmTrust RE’s 250 Broadway offers tenants an exceptional location with a wide range of transportation options. The property has undergone significant capital improvements, including renovations to the lobby, elevators and other common areas, adding value to the building. Occupying the entirety of the 30th and 31st floors of the building, Rose & Rose’s spec suite will feature new furnishings, modern fixtures and panoramic views of the New York City and New Jersey skylines.

“After 33 years, Rose & Rose is extremely excited about relocating to 250 Broadway as our new space will allow our firm to expand and better serve our clients. The entire firm is impressed with the building, the space and the welcome that we have received from AmTrust RE ownership and management,” said Todd Rose, Founding Partner of Rose & Rose.

250 Broadway is home to distinguished organizations in both the public and private sectors, including several law firms, such as Gannon, Rosenfarb & Drossman and Pollack, Pollack, Isaac & De Cicco, as well as government entities such as the New York City Council, New York City Housing Authority, New York State Assembly and New York State Senate. The most recent addition to its tenant roster is the prestigious publishing house IGI Global Scientific Publishing, which took 4,000 s/f on the building’s 6^th floor late last year.

AmTrust RE’s portfolio spans several properties across New York City, including 59 Maiden Lane, a 43-unit office tower in Downtown Manhattan; 203 Jay Street, an 8-story commercial building that offers new, furnished office suites and retail space at the nexus of DUMBO, Downtown Brooklyn and Brooklyn Heights; The Amberly, an adjoining 33-story luxury residential tower; and the recently acquired 360 Lexington Avenue, a 24-story office tower just steps from Grand Central Terminal.
