General Atlantic to anchor new global headquarters at Related’s 625 Madison Avenue

General Atlantic, a leading global investor, today announced that it has signed a long-term lease for its new global headquarters at 625 Madison Avenue, a new landmark Class AA office tower under construction by Related Companies in Midtown Manhattan’s Plaza District.

As the building's anchor tenant, General Atlantic will occupy five floors totaling more than 150,000 square feet within the 53-story tower, which is expected to open in 2029. The new headquarters is designed to support General Atlantic’s New York team of more than 330 professionals while providing a collaborative work environment for entrepreneurs, investors, advisors, and other members of the firm’s global network. 

Designed by Foster + Partners and Gensler, 625 Madison represents the first new, ground-up premier office building to be built in the Plaza District in decades. Rising more than 680 feet, the building’s design, including its column-free tower floorplates and corners, was conceived to take full advantage of its spectacular Central Park views and location between 58^th and 59^th Streets along Madison Avenue. The building’s exclusive, five-star amenities include a sixth-floor club with a 200-plus-person multipurpose room for investor meetings and events, executive boardrooms, a private dining room, a coffee and cocktail bar for employees, and wraparound outdoor terraces. In addition, the building's base will feature a flagship restaurant as well as luxury retail at the corners of 58^th and 59^th Streets. The building’s all-electric and LEED Platinum design will make it one of the most sustainable large-scale office buildings in New York City. 

Bill Ford, Chairman and CEO at General Atlantic, commented: “General Atlantic has always taken a long-term view, and our new headquarters is an investment in the firm’s future. It will be a place that brings our people and global community together, strengthens the connections that are central to who we are, and gives us room to grow for many decades to come. We’re pleased to have Related as a partner in bringing this vision to life.”

Jeff Blau, CEO of Related Companies, said: “When we began designing 625 Madison, General Atlantic was exactly the kind of prestigious and ambitious firm we had in mind as an anchor tenant because of the value they place on investment and operational excellence, collaboration, and long-term relationships. This will be a building of industry leaders, and we are thrilled to have General Atlantic on board and look forward to delivering an exceptional new headquarters for their team.”
