51 Astor Place (almost) has its first tenant

As you may know, the Death Star 51 Astor Place is being built entirely on spec. However, The Commercial Observer brings news that 51 is ready to ink its first tenant — the Hult International Business School. Pending approval of the state's Board of Regents, the school with campuses in Boston, San Francisco, London, Dubai and Shanghai is expected to take the entire second floor.

No word on where they'll lease space for their fraternity and sorority houses. (OK — that's a joke.)

H/T Curbed.

    Actually, that's a good question - where to house these students?
