Winoker Realty Company has negotiated seven individual office leases representing a combined 21,055 s/f the Chelsea district.
Elliot Klein, senior VP at Winoker, exclusively represented the building's owner, 276 Managers LLC, on all of the signings. Klein also represented several of the tenants involved in these deals.
"276 Fifth Ave. benefits from 21st century amenities and mechanicals," said Klein. "All of the elevators and bathrooms were recently restored, and the office suites were upgraded to tenant-specified improvements to give users all the modern advantages in a highly elegant setting. In addition to the property's excellent location, these were strong selling points for all of these tenants."
