LLC has signed a 212,500-square-foot lease with Mastercard at 150 Fifth Ave., a landmark 11-story office building in the heart of Midtown South\u2019s Flatiron District.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cFrom the start, we have presented 150 Fifth as a golden opportunity for an innovative company to join the ranks of just 16 other companies that currently inhabit an entire Manhattan building,\u201d<\/em> Robert Lapidus, L&amp;L Holding Co.\u2019s president&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;CIO, said in a prepared release. <em>\u201cThis gives Mastercard the unique ability to expand and further cultivate a center for innovation in Midtown South.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>Mastercard is planning to move into the building in mid-2019, making it the company\u2019s expanded technology hub.<\/p>\n<p>L&amp;L Holding is set to finish a major modernization and re-envisioning of the property. The multi-million building-wide revamp&nbsp;is being done in a collaborative effort with STUDIOS Architecture and project manager OC Development Management. The plans include filling in a staircase and eliminating certain walls, creating a far more open, collaborative and efficient working environment. Additionally, the building\u2019s lobby will be expanded, and the elevator and other infrastructure systems will be modernized.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Increasing its NYC Reach<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Mastercard already houses members of its digital and technology innovation group&nbsp;at 114 Fifth Ave., an 80,000-square-foot office space, which L&amp;L also operates and recently renovated to serve as a hub for creative companies.&nbsp;The building is located between 19th and 20th Streets and Mastercard will be transitioning all of its current and future New York City employees to the new space.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe believe their decision to continue to work with L&amp;L Holding is a validation of our commitment to best-in-class tenant service as well as our long-term vision for Midtown South,&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em>said David Levinson, L&amp;L\u2019s chairman&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;CEO.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Cushman &amp; Wakefield\u2019s Mitchell Barnett and Andrew Ross represented Mastercard in the lease, while L&amp;L was represented in-house by David Berkey and Andrew Wiener.<\/p>\n<h2>Busy Year for L&amp;L<\/h2>\n<p>There has been a lot of news coming from L&amp;L lately. This summer, the company&nbsp;hired David Horowitz&nbsp;as its latest senior vice president and then recruited Alex O\u2019Connor as its newest acquisition associate. In September, L&amp;L Holding Co. hired Robert Israel, Domenick DiNizo and Elena Zaika to assist with the&nbsp;$2 billion <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/ll-holding-expands-times-square-project-team\/\">redevelopment of 1568 Broadway<\/a> in Times Square.<\/p>\n<p>L&amp;L is in the midst of developing the Norman Foster-designed 425 Park Ave., which will be the first full-block office tower to rise on the famed boulevard in more than 50 years.
