With so many changes at workplaces in the last year, many companies are looking for new spaces. Companies such as HUGE, Tunecore, obé Fitness, Small Planet Digital, Quip and others are attracted to the desirable amenities, features and locations at Two Trees’ commercial properties in DUMBO, Williamsburg and the Flatiron district. Here are some of the attractions:

Amenities

Commercial tenants across the board are looking for amenities at the office. All Two Trees office buildings have outdoor spaces designed by Field Operations (of Highline fame), conference rooms, maternity rooms and bicycle parking.

Taking this a step further, Ten Grand Street, the new commercial building designed by architecture firm COOKFOX, in Williamsburg, features 17,000 square feet of exceptional indoor and outdoor amenity spaces along with 18 floors of office space with stunning 360-degree views of Manhattan and Brooklyn.

“The open space and the sun-drenched views streaming into our office lift our moods on a daily basis, certainly inspiring us creatively,” said Nesli Danisman, president of Angora Group, a product management consultant firm.

Tenants enjoy a fitness center, complete with locker rooms and showers, a sky-lit meeting atrium with cafe seating, a spacious work lounge with library tables and casual seating, numerous outdoor spaces, a 48-seat screening theater and a bike entrance and storage.

Harley Miller, founder and managing partner of Left Lane, a venture capital firm, found a space where his company can grow at Ten Grand Street. “It’s an inspiring place to work from, that blurs the line between personal and professional life, and we are fortunate to set up shop there as we embark on our journey in building a formidable institution,” he said. “It starts with your surroundings.”

The same can be said for Two Trees’ DUMBO properties — 45 Main Street, 55 Washington Street and 20 Jay Street. All have large landscaped roof gardens that serve as outdoor office spaces with seating, Wi-Fi and power outlets.

Samantha Choi, CEO at digital marketing agency Manual Labor Studio Corp., has been a tenant at 55 Washington for three years. “The rooftop has been our respite from the daily chaos. Two Trees has done a great job creating a space that is relaxing and thoughtful. Whether it’s to eat lunch or host a meeting, our team loves the environment the outdoor rooftop space provides.”

At all three DUMBO locations, the offices have oversized operable windows, high ceilings and a mix of original hardwood floors and polished concrete, along with conference rooms, nursing rooms and concierges — all a block away from the East River and Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Tenants at 50 West 23rd Street — which include Foursquare, Even Financial, The Skimm and others — enjoy fully renovated modern offices. There’s also a large landscaped roof deck with Wi-Fi, AV, and power outlets. This Beaux-Arts cast-iron building also has 24/7 access, because the City doesn’t sleep.

Inspired by the neighborhood

“We couldn’t be more excited to move to our new office space at Ten Grand Street,” said Arnaud Plas, cofounder and CEO of Prose, a custom haircare brand, “With access to premier amenities, and Domino Park just steps from the building, it will further accelerate our business as a leading custom beauty brand.”

Domino Park offers an inviting respite from work with its elevated walkway, picnic area, dog run, playground, beach volleyball and bocce courts, and Danny Meyer’s Tacocina taqueria — along with the building’s ground floor retailers Other Half Brewery, Goodfellows Ice Cream, Two Hands Coffee and Roberta’s Pizza.

The same goes for the DUMBO and Flatiron neighborhoods. Tenants at 50 West 23rd Street enjoy the perks of being in Manhattan — the unmistakable pulse and convenience of some of the city’s most popular retail destinations and restaurants, while Madison Square Park provides blocks of greenery and sky.

In DUMBO, nearby Brooklyn Bridge Park offers 85 acres of East River waterfront, with bike and running paths that connect to surrounding neighborhoods and the many dining and nightlife options that never get old.
