VVA, LLC has been retained to provide project management and tenant representation services for the design and construction of new television studios for News Corporation and Fox News at 1211 Avenue of the Americas.
The new studios will consist of core and shell expansions to the building at the east facade over the Charles Schwab portion of the building and on the west elevation above the tenth floor roof setback. The expansion project will be designed and implemented by building ownership in a build-to-suit arrangement with News Corp. All new mechanical, electrical and emergency power systems are part of the scope and deliverables with planned completion in the 3rd quarter of 2008. "VVA's key role will be to represent News Corp. and Fox News in the fast-track delivery of these critical television studios and infrastructure expansion in order to complete the project prior to 2008 election coverage," said Marc Chiapperino, VVA partner, leading the assignment.
