According to various published reports and a news release, Melio leased 25,000 square feet of office space across the 15th and 16th floors for use as its global HQ. The company, said to be valued at $4 billion, is relocating here from a WeWorks property on West 18th Street.
The building, developed jointly by the city's Economic Development Corp. and RAL Development Services, will feature 14 floors of market-rate office space as well as "a technology training center and incubator, co-working spaces and state-of-the-art event space ... on the seven floors beneath," per the Zero Irving website. Urbanspace will operate a food hall on the ground level.
Long contested by local preservationists and community groups, the new building sits on the former site of a P.C. Richard & Son on city-owned property.
