Law Firm Expands by 40K Feet in 1211 Avenue of the Americas

You win some, you lose some. Beacon Capital Partners1211 Avenue of the Americas—where Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp. is headquartered and which recently lost German bank WestLB to 7 World Trade Center—has just leased more than 40,000 square feet to Boston corporate law firm Ropes & Gray.

The law firm activated a provision of its 2005 lease of 250,000 square feet that allows it to take an additional floor in the tower, according to Maureen Silverleib, a spokeswoman for the firm.

The lease gives Ropes & Gray the 32nd floor, which the Royal Bank of Canada recently gave up, in addition to the space it occupies on floors 35 through 40 in the 45-story cloudbuster.
