12 MetroTech Building Now Completely Leased, Forest City Reports
El Diario Takes Floor at One MetroTech
Brooklyn Daily Eagle
Compiled by Linda Collins
It's not all bad news coming out of One MetroTech, Bruce Ratner's world headquarters.
Forest City Ratner Companies reported this week that with two recently signed leases its building at 12 MetroTech Center is now 100 percent leased.
As the Eagle has reported, the building houses the State Supreme Court and Family Court on floors 2-25, reserving floors 26-30 for commercial leasing.
The recent transaction was with the National Union Fire Insurance Co., a subsidiary of American International Group (AIG), which has signed a lease for approximately 120,000 square feet on three full floors and one partial floor for support staff and administrative operations for several AIG companies.
...
Forest City also reports that El Diario La Prensa, the oldest Spanish language newspaper in America and the largest in the tri-state area, has signed a lease for 23,400 square feet on the 18th floor at One MetroTech.
NoLandGrab: The Eagle has run most of this stuff already. Either the paper was just filling space with this press release mash-up, or it really can't get enough of the Brucester.
BTW: The City of New York is the largest tenant in MetroTech, though Ratner would never send out a press release bragging about it.
