NEW YORK CITY—Fashion label Halston has signed a long-term lease for more than 14,000 square feet of space at Thor Equities' 25 W. 39^th St. office building here.

Halston has signed a lease for 14,400 square feet of space for the entire fourth floor of the more than 200,000-square-foot 16-story historic office building, which also serves as the corporate headquarters for building owner Thor Equities.

Arthur Mirante, John Ryan, III, Patrick Steffens and Michael Blue of Avison Young represented the building owner in the transaction along with Jonathan Scheinberg of Thor Equities. Scott Rosen of Akron Trotter Property Group represented Halston in the lease deal.

“We are pleased to welcome Halston to 25 West 39th Street, a magnificent office building with a storied history and ideal location in the heart of Midtown Manhattan,” says Melissa Gliatta, COO of Thor Equities.

Opened in 1907 as the Engineering Societies' Building, the office building was developed with a $1.5-million gift from Andrew Carnegie and featured a 1,000-seat auditorium and one of the largest engineering libraries in the world, with members that included Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla. The Engineering Societies' left in 1961, and the building was converted to office space.
