Havas Health<\/a>, a global health and wellness communications network, is expanding its Midtown headquarters, Commercial Observer has learned.<\/p>\n

Havas, which creates advertising, public relations and marketing campaigns for health care brands, signed a 15-year deal to renew its existing 189,461-square-foot office at George Comfort & Sons<\/a>\u2019 200 Madison Avenue and tack on an additional 64,657 square feet, according to the landlord.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The deal, which stretches through at least 2041, brings the health company\u2019s total footprint to 254,118 square feet across five floors of the 26-story office building seven blocks south of Grand Central Terminal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Asking rents for available office space in the building \u2014 which George Comfort owns alongside Loeb Partners Realty<\/a> and Jamestown<\/a> \u2014 average $70 to $75 per square foot, according to ownership.<\/p>\n

Founded in 1835, Havas is one of the world\u2019s largest global communications groups and has been a tenant at 200 Madison Avenue since the late 1990s<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cHavas Health\u2019s growing long-term commitment to 200 Madison Avenue is a testament to the appeal of the hospitality-focused, amenity-rich environment we are cultivating for our tenants,\u201d Peter Duncan, president and CEO of George Comfort, said in a statement. \u201cHavas has been a valued tenant for nearly three decades, and we are proud to support its next chapter of success within the tower.\u201d<\/p>\n

Duncan and Alexander Bermingham represented ownership in-house in the deal, while Newmark<\/a>\u2019s David Falk and Jason Greenstein repped the tenant. A spokesperson for Newmark did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n

George Comfort recently completed a renovation of the office tower\u2019s entrance and lobby, and it is in the midst of building a new indoor-outdoor amenity center on the 10th floor, which will span 11,000 square feet and feature conference rooms, a game area, a lounge and event spaces. The center will also include an outdoor garden, according to the landlord.<\/p>\n

Other tenants at 200 Madison Avenue include architecture firm Spectorgroup<\/a> and law firm BraunHagey & Borden<\/a>, as well as fitness brand TMPL and furniture store Roche Bobois in the retail space.<\/p>\n
