“Combined with Columbia’s repositioning and leasing track record in Midtown South, we believe this is a perfect partnership to develop 799 Broadway into a best-in-class office destination.”

Upon completion, the new office building is set to complement Columbia’s growing portfolio of differentiated assets in Midtown South.

It would be characterised by smaller floor plates, distinctive architecture, in addition to modern finishes and amenities.

Normandy Real Estate Partners founder and partner Jeffrey Gronning said: “We look forward to working with Columbia to jointly develop a Class A, loft-style, creative building in this ideal location.

“With its high-end amenities and features, this unique building will be ideally suited for tenants seeking a creative and collaborative environment and should benefit from the limited supply of newly developed properties in this highly desirable neighbourhood.”
