A lease for an innovative private school at a new Downtown Brooklyn building topped the list of the 10 largest office leases in Brooklyn and Queens for 2020.
The list, published in The Real Deal, a real estate publication, shows that nine of the mega-leases are in Kings County, with the only other one being in Glendale, Queens.
In a deal extensively covered in the Brooklyn Eagle, Whittle School and Studios, an educational organization that also has facilities in Washington, D.C., and China, signed a lease to occupy the Wheeler, a 10-story development on top of the well-known Macy’s on Fulton Street.
