1CO3800A0625Boston Properties’ new marquee office tower at 250 West 55th Street, which is set to open for its anchor office tenants Morrison & Foerster and Kaye Scholer this winter, boasts a number of retail opportunities, including a restaurant space totaling more than 7,000 square feet across the ground and lower levels.

The unique location is a prime intersection for tourist, residential and business traffic. The search for the right tenant, which is being handled by Cushman & Wakefield (CWK)’s Steven Soutendijk, senior director, David Green, executive vice president, and Christopher Schwart, senior associate, is focused on a full-service restaurant that fits with the image of the building. Though discussions with a number of potential users are ongoing, there have been no handshakes on a deal. The space, though, is ready to begin a build-out should a tenant sign on.

“We’re ready to start now, we’re ready to sign a lease now and we’re ready to get a tenant in the building now,” said Mr. Soutendijk during a tour of the space last week. “A restaurant build-out of this magnitude could take anywhere from six to nine months, and we would love to get it online at the same time as the building, but that would necessitate signing a lease now.”
