NEW YORK, Oct. 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Empire State Realty Trust, Inc.

“LinkedIn has created an exceptional environment that reflects its unique culture and brand in the Empire State Building. In addition to its expansion on the 24th floor, we were able to arrange an early recapture of space from an existing tenant, and that made available three floors to accommodate LinkedIn’s additional growth within the Empire State Building’s Urban Campus,” said Thomas P. Durels, Executive Vice President, Real Estate, for ESRT. “LinkedIn enjoys the benefits of the Empire State Building’s unique combination of amenities, including the tenant-only fitness center and a variety of in-building dining options, along with ESRT’s ability to generate flexibility for growth.”
