Raymond James Financial has taken 11,518 square feet of office space at Brookfield Property Partners’ 200 Liberty Street, Commercial Observer has learned.
The space is on the 26th floor of the 40-story building, confirmed JLL’s John Wheeler, who leases the property on behalf of Brookfield along with colleagues Clayton Kline and Michael Berman and Brookfield’s David McBride and Jerry Larkin.
“It’s a new location in Downtown Manhattan for Raymond James,” Wheeler said.
The structure is part of the five-building, 8.5-million-square-foot Brookfield Place complex, which is 97 percent occupied, Wheeler said. The tenant mix has diversified over the last three years from exclusively the worlds of finance, insurance and real estate.
“It’s a cross section now, not just the FIRE sector,” Wheeler said.
The Associated Press famously took 170,000 square feet at the building, as CO previously reported. Other tenants include Santander Bank and GfK market research firm.
Cushman & Wakefield’s Samuel Clark and Jonathan B. Fein represented the tenant in the Raymond James deal. They didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment via a spokesman.
