Positioned high above the Financial District with sweeping southern and eastern exposures, this expansive prebuilt sublease offers a highly efficient full-floor layout designed for large-scale professional teams. The configuration features approximately 43 private perimeter offices paired with six interconnected open work areas, providing flexible environments for both heads-down concentration and collaborative workflow. The design comfortably supports over 150 personnel, with multiple breakout zones, nine private phone rooms, and several distinct meeting spaces. A series of five full kitchens and four restrooms are conveniently distributed throughout the plan, ensuring seamless functionality and comfort for staff across the floor.

The arrival experience begins at a refined reception area situated at the center of the layout, creating an organized entry point for clients and employees alike. Immediately beyond reception, the floor divides naturally into several operational wings. To one side, a sequence of glass-fronted private offices lines the perimeter, each proportioned for executives or team leads while still maintaining an open visual connection to the broader workspace. Adjacent to these offices, open work zones are equipped with contemporary benching systems that optimize density while preserving mobility. Ample spacing between rows ensures a professional yet comfortable environment, with carpeting and acoustic ceiling panels moderating ambient noise for a calm, productive atmosphere.

Toward the opposite side of the plan, a large open collaboration zone integrates with a full kitchen and pantry area—perfect for informal meetings or staff gatherings. Each kitchen is fully outfitted with cabinetry, service counters, and seating that functions as a casual café space. Meeting and conference rooms are thoughtfully distributed between the central core and the outer perimeter, varying in size to accommodate private discussions, team meetings, or client presentations. Glass walls and bright LED lighting keep these interior rooms transparent and inviting, while soft neutral finishes provide a professional backdrop suitable for a range of tenant types.

Large perimeter windows wrap around nearly every side of the suite, filling the space with daylight and offering panoramic views of the harbor and Lower Manhattan skyline. The abundance of natural light contributes to a modern, energized work setting that elevates both focus and morale. Several small lounge areas punctuate the layout, designed with plush seating and coffee tables that invite informal conversation or short reprieves from the workstation.

As a fully built, furnished sublease opportunity, the suite is move-in ready and ideal for tenants seeking a high-functioning space without the expense or delay of a new construction build-out. Its strategic layout, mix of private and shared areas, and generous infrastructure—complete with multiple kitchens, phone booths, and collaboration spaces—make it exceptionally well suited for firms in finance, law, technology, or administration. Supported by a recently renovated lobby, on-site management, and direct access to major subway and ferry lines, this full-floor office combines convenience, scale, and sophistication in one of Downtown Manhattan’s most recognized business addresses.
