Change is coming to 80 Pine St., the full-block, 1.2 million square-foot office tower developed by the Rudin family that opened in 1960.
Faced with upcoming lease expirations that will leave 800,000 square feet vacant, the Rudins have tapped Fogarty Finger Architecture to design a new ground floor lobby and entryways. The reconfigured lobby can provide a “building within a building” option for a large new tenant.
The project also includes new storefronts with decorative glass curtain walls. The lobby’s original travertine will be replaced with elements meant to reflect the Midcentury-style’s warmer elements — white terrazzo flooring, white oak-paneled wall cladding and contemporary plaster-finish ceilings.
The leasing and new marketing campaign will offer rents in the mid-high $50s per square foot.
Rudin Management senior VP Samantha Rudin said the “fourth generation of the family business is excited to revitalize and reinvest in this important downtown office tower.”
