According to Cassidy Turley, Wolf Greenfield signed a 12-year renewal and expansion at the Federal Reserve Plaza at 600 Atlantic Ave. Wolf Greenfield, an intellectual property law firm and the building's largest tenant, will occupy 90,000 s/f. "Wolf Greenfield has an 87-year history of counseling leading companies, and we're looking forward to expanding on that legacy," said Timothy Oyer, president and managing partner at Wolf Greenfield. "As Greater Boston continues to attract visionary entrepreneurs and companies, we recognize the importance of having a space that allows us to meet the needs of this rapidly growing area." Known as Federal Reserve Plaza, 600 Atlantic Ave. is home to the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. In 2013, the Building Owners and Managers Association of Boston recognized 600 Atlantic Ave. with the 2013 Earth TOBY Award, which honors building and management teams that take a green approach to enhancing the internal and external environments of their buildings. The building is also LEED-EB Gold Certified by the US Green Building Council. Senior managing directors, principals, Barry Hynes and Chuck O'Connor, represented Wolf Greenfield in the transaction. Roger Breslin and Ron Perry of Colliers International represented the landlord, the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. "Located where the Financial and Innovation Districts intersect the Waterfront and Seaport, 600 Atlantic Ave. is a prime location for attracting clientele from Boston and surrounding areas," said Hynes. "With amenities such as 26,000 s/f of meeting space, this building is well-equipped to meet the needs of Wolf Greenfield, both for its employees and its wide range of clients."
