The Moinian Group closed a 22,400 s/f, long-term lease for Merchant Cash and Capital at 450/460 Park Ave. South. The 12-story, 180,000 s/f office building located between East 30th and 31st Sts. is now fully leased.
Jovani Rampersad, commercial leasing director for Moinian, negotiated the lease on behalf of the owner, while Ira Rovitz of Newmark Grubb Knight Frank represented the tenant. The 22,400 s/f lease at the building represents an expansion and extension for Merchant Cash and Capital.

Our prime location in a vibrant section of Midtown has attracted a mix of top tenants. Merchant Cash and Capital has been a long-time tenant of ours, and we are fortunate to have been able to accommodate its growing business within the building," said Rampersad of The Moinian Group.
