Broadway 16th Floor Office Rental
- 6,500 SQFT
- Lease Term 5 to 10 Year
- $94/SQFT
A full-floor workspace on a high elevation unfolds with a dramatic sense of air, light, and scale, shaped by long window lines that span both Broadway and East 21st Street. Polished concrete floors, tall ceilings, and modern architectural finishes set an immediately elevated tone, giving the entire suite the presence of a contemporary creative loft rather than a conventional office. The reception area sits just past the main entry and is generously proportioned, allowing a visitor to step inside and immediately take in the openness and natural light that define the entire floor. This reception area leads directly into the heart of the space, where a vast open workroom forms the core of the layout. Rows of large windows along the angled Broadway side give the open zone continuous daylight, making it ideal for a large workstation layout, creative studio functions, or any business that thrives in a bright, energetic environment.
From this main open floor, circulation extends toward a series of perimeter rooms positioned along the eastern side and the Broadway-facing wall. In total, the floorplate offers five perimeter rooms of varying sizes, each fully enclosed and capable of serving as private offices, breakout rooms, client meeting rooms, production rooms, or executive suites. The placement of these rooms along the windowed walls ensures that teams using them benefit from both daylight and privacy. Several of the enclosed rooms appear large enough to serve as departmental offices or an internal conference room, while the smaller ones naturally fit managerial use, partners, or quiet-focus tasks. Their glass fronts and modern framing maintain the open visual quality of the suite while still providing acoustic separation where it matters.
Moving deeper into the floor, the open area widens into an expansive workspace that spreads across the building’s northeast corner. This section of the layout is particularly flexible because of its depth and multiple exposure lines, giving tenants options to enlarge workstation groups, create team neighborhoods, or integrate lounge-style breakout seating without disrupting circulation. The uninterrupted sightlines reinforce the airy, loft-like atmosphere that is one of the defining features of this full-floor opportunity.
Near the building core, a modern restroom block is positioned alongside the service areas and elevator bank, creating a natural separation between work zones and utility areas. A large pantry or café-style break area sits adjacent to this core, offering an inviting spot for staff to gather, take breaks, or host informal internal meetings. The high-quality finishes throughout the pantry match the rest of the suite and contribute to the overall upscale feel that permeates the floor.
The most distinctive amenity sits just above: access to a landscaped rooftop deck offering panoramic views. This feature elevates the workspace beyond the typical office experience and provides an invaluable outdoor extension of the office for events, lunches, or quiet moments away from the screen.
In total, the suite’s full-floor identity, multiple window exposures, high ceilings, polished floors, and combination of open space and perimeter rooms create a highly adaptable environment suitable for creative firms, tech teams, media companies, or any business seeking a modern, light-filled workspace in the Flatiron District.

About the Building
A 17-story boutique office and retail building prominently positioned at the southeast corner of Broadway and East 21st Street in Manhattan’s Flatiron District. Constructed in 1916 and designed by architects Schwartz & Gross, the property is part of the Ladies’ Mile Historic District and combines distinctive prewar architecture with extensively modernized office interiors and building systems. The building contains approximately 100,000 to 115,000 square feet, depending on the measurement source, with efficient office floor plates of approximately 6,400 to 6,500 square feet.
The property retains many of the characteristics that make Flatiron loft buildings attractive to creative and professional office users. Typical floors feature approximately 13-foot slab-to-slab ceiling heights, oversized windows and excellent natural light, with upper floors providing broad views across Midtown South. Modern office installations within the building frequently incorporate exposed ceilings, polished concrete floors, glass-fronted offices and meeting rooms, open workstation areas, conference rooms, pantries and private restrooms.
920 Broadway underwent a major capital improvement program following its acquisition by Carlyle Group and ClearRock Properties in 2013. More than $10 million was planned for improvements including a redesigned lobby, upgraded elevators, HVAC improvements, new restrooms and windows, enhanced security and energy-conservation technology. The renovation program also included restoration and cleaning of the historic façade, new exterior lighting and improvements to the East 21st Street entrance.
A notable tenant amenity is the building’s rooftop terrace, providing outdoor space and views over the surrounding Flatiron neighborhood. Recent leasing materials also identify a renovated modern lobby designed by Moed de Armas & Shannon, upgraded elevator service and enhanced building security.
The location places tenants between Madison Square Park and Union Square, within one of Midtown South’s most established office, technology and creative-business corridors. Restaurants, cafés, hotels and retail are concentrated throughout the surrounding Flatiron neighborhood, while the building’s Broadway corner provides a highly recognizable address and convenient access from both the east and west sides of Manhattan.
Transportation is excellent, with the R and W trains at 23rd Street and Broadway only a few blocks north and the 6 train at 23rd Street and Park Avenue South also nearby. Additional subway and PATH connections are available around Sixth Avenue, 14th Street and Union Square.
With its approximately 6,500-square-foot floor plates, oversized windows, high ceilings, rooftop amenity and restored prewar architecture, 920 Broadway offers the character of a traditional Flatiron loft building combined with the infrastructure and finishes expected of a modern boutique office property.
