Diversified corporation Soloviev Group recently announced the signing of three new leases for office space in the high-rise at 9 W. 57th St. The new long-term leases at the Group’s flagship property add up to more than 40,000 square feet of premium Manhattan office space, located on what has come to be referred to as Billionaire’s Row.
“It is an honor and a privilege to welcome Hess Group, Beaconlight Capital, and Platinum Equity to the best commercial building in the world,” said Stefan Soloviev, chairman of the Soloviev Group. “These new tenancies underscore our commitment to delivering unmatched office space and exceptional amenities in the center of the plaza district, the most sought-after commercial location in the world.”
Global independent energy company Hess Group (formerly Amerada Hess Corporation) signed a long-term lease for a little more than 19,500 rentable square feet, which represented the largest of the three new agreements.
Next, global investment firm Platinum Equity Advisors signed on for roughly 15,900 rentable square feet on the 46th floor. Finally, alternative asset management firm Beaconlight Capital leased nearly 5,300 square feet in what was the only available space on the newly finished 20,000-square-foot luxurious amenity floor.
Recently completed renovations to the Midtown Manhattan skyline staple include: upgrades to the lobby, modernized elevators, and building system technology, as well as a slew of modern amenities, such as conferencing and multi-functional meeting space; executive dining; and a grab-and-go coffee bar. What’s more, tenants can enjoy the 11,000-square-foot fitness center featuring a cold plunge and hot spa-pool; golf simulator; spa-quality locker; and shower rooms, in addition to the Soloviev Foundation gallery that boasts a regular rotation of masterworks by Vincent van Gogh, Henry Matisse, Basquiat, and Alberto Giacometti.
The three newest tenants share the roster with alternative asset management company Apollo Global Management, fashion company CHANEL, insurance company Loews Corporation, global investment organization Qatar Investment Authority, investment management firm Coatue, private equity firm Veritas, industrial manufacturing company Standard Industries, investment firm Mousse Partners, investment firm Davidson Kempner, finance firm Tikehau Capital, investment adviser Jain Capital, fund manager PointState Capital and asset management company Panco Operations.
