The private equity fund administrator subleased 47,600 s/f of office space from the media conglomerate at the Class A, 597,533 s/f office building.
The sublessor, Meredith, was represented by Frank Doyle, vice chairman; Randy Abend, senior vice president; and Betsy Buckley, vice president, all with JLL. Gen II was represented by William Iacovelli, executive vice president, with CBRE Inc.
“Gen II Fund Services was attracted by the plug-and-play nature of Meredith’s already built-out, high-end space, as well as the office tower’s expansive views,” said Doyle.
