High Rent and Big Concessions on Madison

Basswood Capital Management renewed its lease on the 10th and 11th floors of 645 Madison Avenue. The rent for the 14,000 SQFT space will be around $80 PSF, and the term of the lease is 11 years. Basswood's starting rent is significantly higher than the $69 PSF asking rent for other floors in the building. This discrepancy could be explained by the generous concession package in the deal, which includes over a year in free rent and $50 PSF of TI. Visit VTS for a video tour of the building.
