- According to Steve Cuomo of the New York Post the commercial office market in Manhattan is doing just fine after all. While a vacancy rate of 11.5% in New York City seems high its well below the national average of 15% as well as Chicago at 16.2% and Washington DC at 14.5%. 2010 leasing is well above 2009’s numbers and the 4.4 million square feet leased in March and April represents the largest two month figure since June and July 2007 in the height of the market peak. The New York Post
- Denmark’s largest bank, Dnaske, has returned to New York City after a multi-year hiatus from the Big Apple. The bank recently signed a new 10 year lease for 8,700 square feet of space at 280 Park Avenue in Midtown. Both Danske and landlord Broadway Partners were represented by CB Richard Ellis on the deal. The Commercial Observer
