Avison Young arranges 12,456 square foot lease for W Magazine headquarters at 1 World Trade Center

Globally recognized media brand signs long term lease at premier office tower
New York, NY – Global real estate advisor Avison Young secured a long-term lease for W Magazine at 1 World Trade Center in New York City. The company will occupy 12,456 square feet (sf) on the 46th floor for its headquarters operations.
Avison Young’s Joseph Gervino, Alexis Odgers and Jason Schwartzenberg represented W Magazine in the negotiations. The landlord, the Durst Organization, was represented internally by Karen Rose and Newmark’s Paige Raisides.
“W Magazine, which was previously operating out of a sublease, was looking to establish a long-term headquarters in a high-quality building to reflect the strength of its brand and offer a compelling environment in which to host clients and collaborators,” said Gervino. “Companies are returning to making long‑term commitments to New York City and investing in permanent office environments that anchor their teams and operations.”
One World Trade Center brings together convenience, ample amenities, and a vibrant neighborhood that inspires innovation, productivity, and success. The 25,000-square-foot Well& by Durst amenity space on the 64th Floor Sky Lobby provides tenants with a space that invigorates, inspires, and fosters connections.
