Faneuil Hall Sq. offers 1-year free rent to tenants - catlin and weissman of Boston Realty Advisors leasing agents

Faneuil Hall Sq. LLC is offering office tenants up to one year free in rental concessions on ten year leases. The building is also offering turnkey build outs with mid thirties asking rents. The ownership is well capitalized and is prepared to fund the tenant improvements and brokerage fees out of cash, not bank financing. The privately held company from Manhattan owns the noteworthy office and retail building at the front of Faneuil Hall, One Faneuil Hall Sq. Faneuil Hall Sq. LLC purchased the property in 2006, and quickly released the retail component back to Abercrombie and Fitch. The property is controlled by N.Y.-based Alex Adjmi, Ike Gabbay and Bob Carye. "With all of the news circulating on the sale of the other buildings in Faneuil Hall owned by General Growth, our building at One Faneuil is not for sale. Our intention is to bring the building to 100% occupancy, even with the macro economic head winds that we are dealing with," said Gabbay. "With the aggressive incentives that we are offering tenants and the brokerage community, it is completely possible to get to 100% occupancy in the near term." Principals Jason Weissman and William Catlin, from Boston Realty Advisors are the exclusive leasing agents for the building.
