Wall Street Alliance Group, a provider of wealth management for healthcare professionals, relocated to The Nelson Tower (450 Seventh Avenue) in partnership with Metro Manhattan Office Space. They previously occupied 75 Maiden Lane and sought a more convenient location for their team, clients, and two principals.
As a tenant broker, Metro Manhattan Office Space researched the market for available space that met the specific criteria.
Wall Street Alliance Group explored several Class B office and loft buildings. Eventually, they found a perfect space in Midtown Manhattan near a major transportation hub with access to LIRR, Amtrak, and BDFMNQRW subway lines.
Identification of Suitable Location
With Metro Manhattan’s assistance, the Wall Street Alliance Group explored several Class B buildings in the Garment District/Penn Station area. Eventually, they settled on the Nelson Tower.
Nelson Tower, owned by the Kaufman Organization, is situated at the intersection of 7th Avenue and 34th Street. The location was convenient for Wall Street Alliance Group’s clients, staff, and founders residing nearby Chelsea and Park Avenue.
The impressive lobby and abundant natural light appealed to Wall Street Alliance Group. Additionally, the Company believed this atmosphere could enhance the workspace, productivity, and job satisfaction.
Furthermore, the office’s move-in ready condition ensured a smooth and effortless transition for the Company.
Additionally, Nelson Tower’s location directly on the routes of NYC’s famous parades like Thanksgiving Day provided a unique experience. It contributed to the Company’s aim of creating a positive work environment and warm ambiance.
Nelson Tower’s Features
Nelson Tower offers several amenities, including a 24-hour doorman, security, concierge service, high-speed elevators, a marble lobby, HVAC systems, and communication infrastructure. Furthermore, the interior spaces provide a comfortable and pleasant work environment with excellent natural light and breathtaking city views.
Moreover, the Nelson Tower’s accessible location, mere blocks from Penn Station, Port Authority, and several subway lines, is one of its most significant advantages.
Office Space Leased
The Wall Street Alliance Group leased 2,028 square feet on the partial 6th floor of the Nelson Tower. It featured several windowed offices and an interior conference room, making it an ideal setting for the Company’s operations. Moreover, the space only required minor adjustments, such as painting, carpeting, and the construction of a phone booth. The Kaufman Organization made these improvements on behalf of the tenant. Additionally, their architectural planning services aided Wall Street Alliance Group in evaluating the space and determining the ideal location for the phone booth.
Nelson Tower offers a wide range of available units with an efficient layout. Additionally, floors in the building can be divided for expansion space if tenants outgrow their leased space. The Kaufman Organization works closely with its tenants to accommodate these needs. Wall Street Alliance Group’s substantial growth in recent years made this fact an appealing prospect for the Company.

Metro Manhattan helped the firm find a bright space with an ideal layout in an affordable Class B building that felt more like an A building.
