Chiesa Shahinian & Giantomasi PC Upgrades to Larger Space in 11 Times Square

NEW YORK CITY –  SJP Properties has announced today that Chiesa Shahinian & Giantomasi PC (“CSG”) is both relocating and expanding its occupancy within 11 Times Square, moving to an 8,191-square-foot office on the 34th floor of the 1.1 million-square-foot Class A commercial tower.

CSG expanded its footprint into New York in 2016, taking roughly 5,000 square feet of space on the 31st Floor of 11 Times Square. The prime location of this office, coupled with the firm’s strategic plan for growth, has helped the firm attract lawyers with deep connections in the New York market, necessitating this expansion to a larger office within the same building.

“Cementing the trust of our tenants and providing hotel-level concierge services within our state-of-the-art development at 11 Times Square allows us to keep companies here for the long term,” said Zach Freeman, Senior Vice President at SJP. “We pride ourselves on our ability to offer superior management, tenant relations services, and true partnership to prestigious firms such as CSG, and ensuring that they can expand their operations in a space where they have found success and feel at home.”

The entrance to CSG’s new office will be located directly off the elevators on the southern side of the 34th floor, complete with aesthetic finishes mirroring those on the 31st floor – such as open ceilings and perimeter office installation. The office itself will be built-out by SJP Project Solutions, SJP’s third-party construction management division, with an expected delivery of May 2020.

“Since we first came to 11 Times Square in 2016, we’ve enjoyed the building’s capabilities, its beautiful design, and its ideal location,” stated Francis J. Giantomasi, a member with CSG’s Real Estate, Development & Land Use Group. “Establishing this foothold in the heart of Manhattan has allowed us to enhance our presence and meet the increased demand from New York-based clients. By moving seamlessly from one space to the next, we can continue to grow our network and operations from a strategically-located, world-class office environment.”

11 Times Square is located at the intersection of Eighth Avenue and 42nd Street, serving as the gateway to Midtown’s flourishing West Side. The building boasts a roster of tenants across finance, technology, law and media that includes Proskauer and Microsoft as its anchors. 11 Times Square is among the most technologically advanced commercial buildings ever constructed in Manhattan, featuring LEED Platinum-level indoor air quality and a highly efficient glass curtain wall. Positioned for maximum accessibility to public transportation, the building stands across from the Port Authority Bus Terminal and has direct access to the Times Square 42nd Street subway station.
