"17 State Street is one of the premier office addresses in the Financial District," said Aby Rosen, co-founder and principal of RFR Holding LLC. "We are thrilled to welcome Nelson Levine De Luca & Hamilton, which will join other top names in the financial services, legal, media and technology arenas at this stellar property."
Designed by Emery Roth & Sons in 1988, 17 State Street is known for its distinct curved glass fa cade and signature 15,000 s/f boutique floors, and is widely considered one of Downtown's premier trophy towers. The property boasts exceptional, class A office space with unparalleled views of New York Harbor, the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and Battery Park. Since acquiring the property in 1999, RFR has executed a capital improvement program consisting of upgrades to the corridors, lobby and common areas, as well as a renovated plaza with contemporary landscaping, seating and lighting. RFR has also installed two striking Keith Haring sculptures and one dramatic modern art piece by Carsten Holler. The firm's high-end pre-built program has also attracted tenants to the property.
Situated at the corner of State and Pearl streets across from Battery Park, 17 State Street offers outstanding access to multiple modes of transportation. The property is close to multiple subway lines, ferries to Staten Island and New Jersey, the New York Water Taxi and the Downtown Heliport.
RFR was represented in the transaction by Steve Morrows, AJ Camhi and Ryan Silverman. Mohr Partners Inc.'s Lewis Cowan acted on behalf of the tenant in the lease negotiations.
