Landlords
This is an office deal, not a residential one, so it does not change any rules for apartment owners. It is one data point showing a full-floor office lease in an older Garment District building.

Background
In New York City, commercial leases for offices, showrooms and stores are not covered by rent stabilization or rent control. Terms such as rent, length, increases and build-out costs are negotiated between the landlord and the business, often through brokers on each side. Asking rents reported by brokerage firms are averages of listed prices, not the rents tenants actually sign for.
