The median asking rent for the nearby retail corridor of Fifth Avenue from East 49th to East 59th streets was $2,550 per square foot in the second half of 2025, according to a report from the Real Estate Board of New York<\/a>. 407 Park Avenue sits two blocks east of that posh stretch of Fifth Avenue, at the corner of Park Avenue and East 58th Street.<\/p>\n \u201cSince acquiring the building at the beginning of 2025, we\u2019ve focused on repositioning 470 Park Avenue South as a premier office location,\u201d Michael Cohen, who represented Williams Equities in-house in the deal, said in a statement. \u201cYoga Joint elevates the building\u2019s existing amenities and enhances tenants\u2019 daily experience by meeting the increasing demand for easily accessible wellness offerings.\u201d<\/p>\n Cohen worked alongside Williams Equities\u2019 Andrew Roos and Robert Getreu, as well as Colliers<\/a>\u2019 Thomas Citron and Adam Moss.
