NEW YORK (June 18, 2025) – Bradford Allen announced today that Macerich has signed a long-term lease for a full floor at 825 Third Avenue, totaling approximately 12,500 square feet. Bradford Allen’s Gordon Ogden, executive managing director, and James Hart, associate, represented the tenant in the transaction.
Macerich, a leading retail real estate investment trust, is relocating from 500 Fifth Avenue. The company selected 825 Third Avenue for its high-end finishes, panoramic East River views and extensive amenity offerings, which were made possible by a recently completed $150 million capital improvement program.
“825 Third Avenue stands out as one of the most desirable office towers along Third Avenue,” said Ogden. “It offers the kind of elevated, amenitized workspace that leading companies like Macerich are seeking as they commit to long-term office strategies.”
The transaction reflects continued demand for high-quality office space in Midtown East, particularly in buildings that combine strong ownership, modern upgrades and efficient full-floor opportunities.
Owned and managed by The Durst Organization, 825 Third Avenue has been comprehensively reimagined to prioritize performance, comfort, and design. Upgrades include a fully modernized lobby, state-of-the-art infrastructure and hospitality-driven tenant amenities. The Durst leasing team was led by Tom Bow.
