Spanish financial services provider BBVA will be relocating and expanding its offices to Two Manhattan West \u2014 a 1.9-million-square-foot, Brookfield Properties-owned building near Penn Station. The firm will take up 74,000 square feet of office space across the eighth and ninth floors to accommodate its staff of roughly 350 employees currently running U.S. operations.<\/p>\n

JLL\u2019s Joe Messina and Cushman & Wakefield\u2019s Paul Ferraro brokered the deal on behalf of BBVA, while an in-house team of Duncan McCuaig, Mikael Nahmias, Dave Caperna and Dan Roberts represented the landlord.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleased to welcome BBVA to its new headquarters at Two Manhattan West, a trophy tower that sets the standard for workplace excellence,\u201d said Callie Haines, Brookfield Properties\u2019 executive vice president for the company\u2019s Northeast region.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are looking forward to moving into a prime building in a very attractive location to provide the best possible experience to our BBVA team in New York,\u201d added Regina Gill, head of U.S. corporate investment banking.<\/p>\n

The move marks a significant increase in BBVA\u2019s footprint in New York City<\/a> as the company will leave behind its current premises at Fisher Brothers\u2019 1345 Sixth Ave., where it occupies 42,000 square feet. At Two Manhattan West, the company will be joining a tenant roster that already includes the likes of audit and tax advisory firm\u00a0KPMG; global law firms\u00a0Clifford Chance\u00a0and Cravath; as well as Swaine & Moore LLP.<\/p>\n

Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the 58-story Two Manhattan West is part of the massive, six-building, mixed-use complex spanning eight acres. The superblock in the city\u2019s Midtown West District provides high-end residential real estate, prime retail and office space.<\/p>\n

Expected to welcome tenants in the early months of 2024, Two Manhattan West is currently 80% leased, demonstrating that there\u2019s plenty of demand for state-of-the-art workspaces even in the era of hybrid work arrangements.<\/p>\n
