Flat Rents on Lexington Avenue

Lind Partners renewed its lease of just under 3,100 SF on the 19th floor of 370 Lexington Avenue. The rent in the two and a half year term will be in the high-$40s PSF, which is very similar to what the firm has been paying in its previous lease. Lind Partners is a spin-off of SpringTree Global, which leased the space in 2011 for starting rent in the mid-$40s PSF. The increase in rent for this specific suite since 2011 is less than 6%, while rents in the Grand Central submarket increased by about 15% in the same timeframe.

Another sublease in the building was recently signed by Dubin & Company, which will be paying the sublandlord, IMG, over $130 PSF in starting rent for the 10,885 SF space on the 45th floor.
