Office developer offers prebuilt units


August 11, 2010
This article first appeared in the 200910 issue of BD+C.

Metropole Realty Advisors, owner and developer of the newly renovated 681 Fifth Avenue office building in Manhattan's Plaza District, has created a 6,000-sf, full-floor prebuilt unit that functions as both a model unit and built space for tenants unwilling to incur the cost of a build out. Designed by MKDA Designs, the space features contemporary finishes, 14-foot ceilings, and warm, neutral tones. The eco-inspired unit consists of one large conference room, two open work areas, and six private offices partitioned by all-glass architectural wall systems.
