Manhattan, NY Lee & Associates NYC completed a new office lease for Jones Jones LLC at 44 Wall St. in the Financial District. The law firm signed a 10-year, nine-month lease for 5,311 s/f on part of the seventh floor of the building.

Jones Jones LLC will relocate from its former office at 5 Hanover Sq. as a result of the growing number of residential conversion projects taking place throughout the Financial District, including the planned conversion of its prior building. The firm selected 44 Wall St. to remain in Lower Manhattan, citing the neighborhood’s accessibility, extensive transportation options, dining and retail amenities and strong value proposition for office tenants.

 The landlord was represented by George Comfort & Sons, by Alexander Bermingham. Tenant representation was handled by Todd Korren and Noah Caspi of Lee & Associates NYC.

“Lower Manhattan continues to attract tenants seeking quality office space at a strong value, particularly as older office properties throughout the neighborhood undergo residential conversions,” said Korren. “Jones Jones was focused on remaining in the Financial District, and 44 Wall St. offered an ideal combination of location, accessibility and efficiency for the firm’s next chapter.”

“We wanted to remain in the Financial District because it continues to provide tremendous convenience for our employees and clients alike,” said Matthew Jones, executive partner of Jones Jones LLC. “44 Wall Street checked all the boxes for us in terms of location, transportation access and overall value, while allowing us to stay rooted in the neighborhood we know well.”

Jones Jones LLC is expected to move into its space in June 2026. The firm also maintains an office in Jersey City.

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
