L&L Holding secures full floor
lease with Nagarro at 195 Bdwy.

Manhattan, NY L&L Holding Company has secured a new lease with Nagarro at 195 Bdwy., the Class A office building.

Nagarro delivers data, AI and digital engineering services. The firm, which first moved to 195 Bdwy. in November 2024 as a subtenant, has now signed an eight-year direct lease with L&L. Nagarro’s New York office will continue to span the 41,854 s/f it occupies across the entire 25th floor. 

“We are pleased that Nagarro has selected 195 Bdwy. as its permanent N.Y.C. home,” said L&L Holding vice president of leasing Tanya Grimaldo. “Their agreement with us is a testament to all 195 Bdwy. has to offer: historic architecture, collaborative workspace, hands-on management, and an unbeatable location within the transit-rich, bustling downtown community.”

Designed by William Welles Bosworth, 195 Bdwy. served as the global headquarters of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company from 1916 through 1983. The 1.1 million s/f tower, which spans the full blockfront from Fulton to Dey Sts., is located near the Fulton Transit Center and the World Trade Center Transportation Hub, as well as Lower Manhattan’s shopping, restaurants, open spaces and cultural venues, including the Perelman Performing Arts Center.

In 2017, L&L completed a massive redevelopment of the building’s historic Bdwy. lobby, made famous by its massive marble Doric columns, classic chandeliers and polished bronze. In addition to serving as an entrance for office tenants, L&L transformed a key portion of the lobby into a 50,000 s/f retail galleria, anchored by Nobu Downtown, Anthropologie, and Brooks Brothers, which opened a new global flagship store at the tower this year.

The roster of companies located at the 28-story tower includes financial technology firm Payoneer, global fashion house Gucci, and strategic marketing company Orchestra.

L&L was represented in-house by Jonathan Tootell, Grimaldo, and Giannina Brancato. Nagarro was represented by Sinclair Li, Peter Shikar, and Connor DeSimone of CBRE.

The death of the generic offering memorandum: What buyers expect in 2025 - by Kimberly Zar Bloorian

There was a time when an offering memorandum (OM) was pretty bare bones, some photos, a few bullet points on income, and a rent roll thrown in at the back. That used to get the job done. Not anymore. In 2025, buyers are sharper, faster, and more selective. They’re looking
