Amazon is continuing to grab office space in New York amid its return to in-person work requirements.
Now, the e-commerce giant has signed a 15-year lease to take 333,000 square feet of space at 10 Bryant Park in Midtown, according to a report from The Real Deal. It marks one of the largest office deals in the submarket since the pandemic, as Amazon will pay $29.5 million annually in rent until the 9th year, with the rent scheduled to rise to $32.2 million afterward, the news outlet said.
Additionally, Amazon will have the option to expand by 145,000 square feet at a smaller property on 39th Street. Both buildings are owned by Property Building Corp. (PBC).

Originally, PBC bought 10 Bryant for $330 million in 2010 from HSBC. Then, PBC marketed the office building in 2021, with Innovo Property Group bidding to acquire it at $855 million. However, the deal never closed, as Innovo sought to recapitalize or sell the property at a $1.2 billion valuation — so PBC chose to keep it, according to The Real Deal. PBC refinanced its debt on the property and spent more than $100 million to renovate it.
Amazon, meanwhile, is continuing to add office space. In December, Jeff Bezos' empire grabbed 304,000 square feet of office space in the Penn District at a WeWork site. And in February, Amazon struck another deal with WeWork to expand its lease at the 5 Manhattan West building for 472,000 square feet in Chelsea.
Outside of New York, Amazon signed a deal to secure 50,333 square feet of office space in Miami's Wynwood Plaza, in January. That marked the largest office space deal ever signed in Wynwood.
