Newmark Grubb Knight Frank (NGKF) is pleased to announce that luxury men’s, women’s and children’s swim and resort wear brand, Onia, has leased the entire 37th floor of 10 East 40th Street. The 8,772-square-foot tower floor will house the brand’s new headquarters, including a sales showroom and design studios with panoramic views of the New York City skyline from the Empire State Building down to the Statue of Liberty. The landmark office tower, known as the Mercantile Building, was built in 1929 and is owned by Joseph P. Day Realty. NGKF Senior Managing Director Justin DiMare represented the tenant in the transaction.
Onia’s headquarters were previously located at 8 East 41st Street, where the brand occupied 7,000 square feet across three floors. The relocation serves as an expansion of the company as well as a reorganization, allowing all employees to work on one, open floor. Boasting a modern, minimalist aesthetic, the new space at 10 East 40th Street is an ideal reflection of Onia’s brand image. In close proximity to Grand Central Station, the Midtown location is convenient for both employees and clients, with easy access to many subway lines including the 4, 5, 6, 7, N, Q, R, F and M.
