Manhattan, NY AmTrust RE has completed a 5,467 s/f lease transaction with Worldwide TechServices at 250 Bdwy., a 648,000 s/f office property. Anne Holker, AmTrust RE’s managing director of leasing and acquisitions, represented both parties in the transaction.

Located across the street from City Hall Park, 250 Bdwy. offers companies an ideal headquarters location with access to a wealth of transportation options. The property’s recently remodeled lobby features significant improvements including modern finishes and an expanded floor area to accommodate increased foot traffic.

“Amidst increased office attendance and a flight to quality across the office sector, 250 Broadway is experiencing an uptick in interest from companies across the public and private sectors,” said Jonathan Bennett, president of AmTrust RE. “With its revamped lobby and suite of amenities, the property continues to meet the demands of today’s workforce, and we’re thrilled to welcome Worldwide TechServices as our newest tenant.”

We look forward to continuing our efforts to create commercial spaces where professionals and companies can thrive.”

In 2019, the company expanded its capabilities with the acquisition of American Technology Services. Worldwide TechServices’ recent marquee projects include the development of Pace University’s dedicated Esports arena. Located a few blocks from 250 Broadway, the space and corresponding Esports program aim to propel the future of gaming through curricular and vocational pathways.

“Worldwide TechServices is a true leader in the tech space with global partners and a wide range of innovative solutions that continue to improve processes for clients across real estate and other  industries,” said Bennett.

Worldwide TechServices joins 250 Broadway’s tenant roster, which includes law firm Gannon, Rosenfarb & Drossman; the New York City Council; New York City Housing Authority; New York State Assembly; New York State Senate; and full-service law firm Pollack, Pollack, Isaac & DeCicco, LLP, which moved into the property earlier this year.
