Architects Migrating Downtown

Swanke Hayden Connell Architects will be relocating to FiDi's 100 Broadway. The firm signed a four-year lease and will pay rent in the mid $30s PSF.

The architectural firm will be leaving SoHo (its current office is in The Puck Building at 295 Lafayette), a submarket with average office rents north of $50 PSF in the past year.
