Emery Celli Brinckerhoff & Abady, LLC (ECBA), a Manhattan-based litigation firm, is relocating to Rockefeller Center and expanding its office space by 4,000 s/f. The law firm's new lease of 16,163 s/f comprises the entire 10th floor of 600 Fifth Ave. The transaction was managed by global commercial real estate services firm, Studley.
ECBA currently occupies 12,000 s/f at 75 Rockefeller Plaza and expects to relocate later this year, increasing its footprint by a third.
Studley's executive managing director Paul Revson, corporate managing director Zev Holzman and corporate real estate advisor Chase Gordon represented the tenant in the long-term transaction. 600 Fifth Ave. landlord Tishman Speyer was represented in-house.
"600 Fifth Avenue at Rockefeller Center is a top location that will help further establish ECBA's presence in the Midtown marketplace, while giving them the room to grow and recruit top talent," said Revson.
