GFP Real Estate, LLC is pleased to announce that New York City-based luxury women’s fashion brand MORGANE LE FAY has signed a new lease for 4,422 square feet on the 14th floor of 630 Ninth Ave., also known as The Film Center Building.
Founded in 1983 by Liliana Casabal, the boutique brand exclusively manufactures its products in New York and California. The company will utilize its new location as a design studio and for its general and executive offices; the space was previously occupied by Welz.
“Morgane Le Fay wanted a high floor in a prime Midtown West location that offered unobstructed views and abundant sunlight for both the showroom space and the onsite design team,” said Matthew Mandell of GFP Real Estate.
Matthew Mandell of GFP Real Estate represented the landlord, GFP Real Estate, in the transaction; Joshua Berger of Norman Bobrow & Co. represented the tenant.
“I am thrilled to have found the perfect new home for Liliana and her team. The incredible natural light and proximity to transportation were major factors that drew us to the Film Center Building,” added Berger.
Built in 1929 by architect Ely Khan, 630 Ninth Ave. is a 13-story office building comprising more than 275,000 square feet. The newly renovated building once only catered to businesses involved in theater, film and music and is in Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood, just moments away from the Theater District. The location provides easy access to many dining options and transportation services, including the Port Authority Bus Terminal, The NY Waterway Ferry, the Lincoln Tunnel, and multiple subway lines.
