Owners of income-producing properties file a Real Property Income and Expense statement each year; gross income is everything a property collected in 2024 per square foot, as filed, with outlier and partial-year filers left out. It includes vacant space, concessions and older leases, so it is not an asking rent.

Questions about office space in Stapleton
How much does office space cost in Stapleton?
Leasemark has no asking rents posted here yet, so here are the city's own numbers. Office buildings in Staten Island collected a median $26.23 per square foot in 2024, and the middle half between $17.77 and $36.50, according to the income and expense statements owners file with the NYC Department of Finance (FY 2027 distributions, 233 filings). The city publishes these figures by borough, so this is Staten Island as a whole, not Stapleton alone. That is what buildings actually collected, with vacant space, concessions and leases signed years ago in the mix, so it is a baseline rather than a quote: a specific space's price depends on the building's class, floor, condition and the length of the lease.
How do I find office space in Stapleton 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 is an office sublease in Stapleton different from a direct lease?
You rent the space from the company that leases it now rather than from the landlord, for part of that company's remaining term. Subleases often come built out and furnished, run shorter than a direct lease and usually ask less than comparable direct space. The landlord has to consent in writing before anyone moves in, and the sublease ends when the lease above it does. Leasemark matches sublease listings with tenants looking to lease or sublease.
Can I sublease my office space in Stapleton?
Usually, with your landlord's written consent: most New York office leases require it, and many let the landlord take the space back instead (recapture) or claim a share of any rent above what you pay. You stay liable under your own lease while the subtenant is in. Read the subletting clause first, then list the space for free on Leasemark, where it is matched against every active requirement for this kind of space.
How much office space is there in Stapleton?
New York City's PLUTO tax lot data (26v2) records about 723,000 square feet of office floor area across 82 properties in the part of Stapleton Leasemark covers. The largest by that measure is 1 Edgewater Street, at about 256,000 square feet. That is the existing building stock, not space currently for sublease.
What Staten Island Railway stations serve Stapleton?
Two Staten Island Railway stations sit within about 0.7 mi of Stapleton's commercial core, served by the Staten Island Railway. The closest is Stapleton (SIR), roughly 2 minutes on foot; then Clifton (SIR). Walking times are straight-line estimates from MTA station data.
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.
