ANV Group Holdings Ltd., a Blackstone-backed firm, has signed a full-floor lease at 59 Maiden Lane in Manhattan's Financial District, bringing the 1,043,670-square-foot office tower owned by AmTrustRE to 100% occupancy, the company announced Aug. 18, 2026.

The ANV Group Holdings lease totals 14,807 square feet and represents the final piece in a leasing push at the tower that also included a 58,164-square-foot, 20-year renewal by specialty litigation and business law firm London Fischer LLP. Together, the two transactions completed the lease-up of one of Lower Manhattan's largest office assets.

Deal Details at 59 Maiden Lane

The ANV Group Holdings commitment covers a full floor at 59 Maiden Lane, located at the corner of Maiden Lane and William Street in New York's Financial District. The tower spans more than one million square feet and is managed by AmTrustRE, a national real estate owner and operator with a multi-billion-dollar portfolio headquartered in New York City and Chicago.

The London Fischer LLP renewal was negotiated by Anne Holker, Managing Director of Leasing at AmTrustRE, without outside brokers. That transaction was among the largest office deals recorded in May 2026. The 20-year term locks in cash flow at the property well beyond the current repositioning timeline.

AmTrustRE described the full-occupancy milestone as "a meaningful validation of our long-term investment strategy," noting that 100% lease-up was achieved before the completion of an ongoing renovation program at the building.

Repositioning Program Still Underway

AmTrustRE has been actively repositioning 59 Maiden Lane through a series of capital improvements. A façade and lobby renovation is expected to complete in 2027, while a redesigned public plaza at the tower is slated for completion later in 2026. The firm also has plans for a three-floor boutique fitness concept operated by Fitness International's Club Studio in the building's retail portion.

The full occupancy milestone arriving ahead of those physical improvements reflects tenant demand for the asset in its current state.

AmTrustRE's Broader New York Office Strategy

The 59 Maiden Lane lease-up is part of a wider pattern of leasing activity across AmTrustRE's New York office portfolio. At 250 Broadway, a 31-story, 648,000-square-foot office tower also in Lower Manhattan, the firm recently signed the NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission to a 39,000-square-foot lease covering the entire fourth floor and part of the fifth floor. That deal brought 250 Broadway to 90% leased, with the TLC set to relocate its headquarters there in the first quarter of 2027.

At 260 Madison Avenue in Midtown, a 22-story, 570,000-square-foot office building that AmTrustRE acquired in October 2025 for approximately $217 million, Marcus & Millichap expanded its footprint by 5,000 square feet to a total of 41,000 square feet in May 2026. AmTrustRE has also cited 203 Jay Street as 90% leased, alongside 250 Broadway at the same rate, reinforcing a narrative of portfolio-wide leasing strength across its New York holdings.

The firm has been an active acquirer of New York office assets, including a $66 million acquisition in March 2026, positioning itself as a conviction buyer in a market that has faced broader uncertainty around office demand.

Market Context

The ANV Group Holdings lease and the London Fischer LLP renewal reflect continued demand from institutional and professional-services tenants for well-located office space in Manhattan's Financial District. Long-duration commitments such as London Fischer's 20-year extension provide landlords with the cash flow stability needed to support capital improvement programs and financing assumptions over extended horizons.

With 59 Maiden Lane now fully leased and renovation work continuing through 2027, AmTrustRE's FiDi flagship illustrates the firm's repositioning approach across its New York portfolio.
