Newmark completes 80,000 s/f of leasing at the Flatiron Suites

New York, NY Newmark has completed more than 80,000 s/f of leasing transactions over the past 12 months at the Flatiron Suites, three office properties in the heart of New York City's Flatiron District.

"Today's tenants seek a higher standard when it comes to the delivery condition of the space, and ownership did a tremendous job of recognizing that," said Cagner.
