 & Wakefield announced that The New York City Housing Authority The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) provides housing for low and moderate income residents throughout the five boroughs of New York City. NYCHA also administers a citywide Section 8 Leased Housing Program in rental apartments. , the largest provider of low-and moderate-income housing in the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America. The United States is the world's third largest country in population and the fourth largest country in area. , has leased 62,000 square feet at the Hutchinson Metro Center, at 1200 Waters Place.

The transaction completes a four-year space search for NYCHA NYCHA New York City Housing Authority , and the consolidation of employees from three separate locations elsewhere in the Bronx to a single floor at the new building.

The 20-year lease brings occupancy in the new building to 75 percent occupancy, less than a year after its completion, signifying Signifyin' (slang) is an African-American rhetorical device featuring indirect communication or persuasion and the creating of new meanings for old words and signs. Signifying, in this sense, includes repetition and difference, implication and association, combining words and  strong demand for new construction in the Bronx.

The Hutchinson Metro Center is the first class-A office complex to be built in the Bronx in more than a decade. Originally set on 18.5 acres, it boasts 460,000-square-feet of premier office space. Upon completion of the NYCHA transaction, just 115,000 square feet of space remains available for lease in the first building.

Based on significant demand for class-A construction in the Bronx, and the project's immediate success, the ownership, Simone Development Companies, has purchased an additional 24.5 acres on site, creating an as-of-right opportunity for an additional 640,000-square-feet of office space. Because the development rights are already approved, the Hutchinson Metro Center represents one of the largest sites available in New York City New York City: see New York, city.

"With its expansive floor plates and competitively priced rents, the Hutchinson Metro Center appealed to NYCHA, which was looking to operate more efficiently by consolidating their operations under one roof," said Cushman & Wakefield's Ms. Stacom.

"NYCHA was seeking a centrally located alternative that would serve to consolidate its office space requirements out of housing complexes spread throughout the Bronx," said Mr. Astrachan. The result is more room for housing for those in need."
