How much office space do you need per employee in 2026
About 150 to 260 rentable SF per employee in NYC when everyone comes in, less with shared desks: tables by team size and layout, then how to size from your busiest day.
Rentable vs usable square feet and the loss factor, explained
Rentable vs usable square feet in NYC: what the loss factor is, how to calculate it, and why two 5,000 SF suites at the same rent can be very different deals.
Gross vs net leases in NYC: what tenants actually pay
Gross, modified gross or triple net: how NYC leases split taxes, operating costs and electricity, what the asking rent leaves out, and how to compare two spaces fairly.
Questions about flex / creative space in Manhattan
How much does flex / creative space cost in Manhattan?
Pricing depends on building class, floor, condition and lease length. Post a requirement with your budget and Leasemark will match you with spaces that fit it as they are listed.
How do I find flex / creative space in Manhattan that is not publicly listed?
Post a requirement on Leasemark. Owners and listing brokers see what you need (without your contact details) and can respond with spaces, including ones that are not on the market yet. You choose who gets an intro.
How much office space is there in Manhattan?
New York City's PLUTO tax lot data (26v2) records about 448.3 million square feet of office floor area across 5,225 properties in the 24 Manhattan neighborhoods Leasemark covers, 85% of the office space in all 47 covered New York City neighborhoods. That is existing building stock in those neighborhoods, not a total for the whole borough and not space currently for lease.
Which Manhattan neighborhoods have the most office space?
By floor area in the city's tax lot data: Midtown (about 137.2 million square feet), the Financial District (about 76.9 million square feet) and the Garment District (about 33.2 million square feet). The largest single office building on record in Manhattan is 185 Greenwich Street in the Financial District, at about 7.2 million square feet.
Do tenants in Manhattan pay the NYC Commercial Rent Tax?
Only for space south of the center line of 96th Street, and only for larger leases. Premises north of 96th Street and in the other boroughs do not pay it at any rent, and Lower Manhattan has its own exemptions for stores south of Murray, Frankfort and Dover Streets and premises in the World Trade Center area. A tenant owes it only when base rent for the space is $250,000 a year or more. The tax is 6% of base rent after a 35% reduction, so 3.9% of rent, with a sliding credit between $250,000 and $300,000, and the Small Business Tax Credit wipes it out for businesses with total income of $5 million or less and base rent under $500,000.
Is it free to post on Leasemark?
Yes. Posting a space or a requirement is free. Contact details are only shared when both sides accept an intro.
