Rent Types
The rent amount and type that the tenant (lessee) will be responsible to pay to the landlord (lessor) throughout the lease term is negotiated prior to both parties signing a lease agreement. The rent type will vary depending upon the services provided. For example, triple net rents are typically lower than full service rents due to additional expenses the tenant is required to pay in addition to the base rent. Contact the listing broker for a full understanding of any associated costs or additional expenses for each rent type.
1. Full Service: A rental rate that includes normal building standard services as provided by the landlord within a base year rental.
2. Double Net (NN): Tenant pays for only two of the building expenses; the landlord and tenant determine the specific expenses prior to signing the lease agreement.
3. Triple Net (NNN): A lease in which the tenant is responsible for all expenses associated with their proportional share of occupancy of the building.
4. Modified Gross: Modified Gross is a general type of lease rate where typically the tenant will be responsible for their proportional share of one or more of the expenses. The landlord will pay the remaining expenses. See the below list of common Modified Gross rental rate structures: 4. Plus All Utilities: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of utilities in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Cleaning: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of cleaning in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Electric: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the electrical cost in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Electric & Cleaning: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the electrical and cleaning cost in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Utilities and Char: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the utilities and cleaning cost in addition to the rent. 4. Industrial Gross: A type of Modified Gross lease where the tenant pays one or more of the expenses in addition to the rent. The landlord and tenant determine these prior to signing the lease agreement.
5. Tenant Electric: The landlord pays for all services and the tenant is responsible for their usage of lights and electrical outlets in the space they occupy.
6. Negotiable or Upon Request: Used when the leasing contact does not provide the rent or service type.
7. TBD: To be determined; used for buildings for which no rent or service type is known, commonly utilized when the buildings are not yet built.

About Plaza District
The Plaza District is one of the largest and most prominent office destinations in the country. The neighborhood's proximity to Central Park, access to premier shopping along Fifth and Madison Avenues, and mass transit access, make this area a top choice for tenants.
The area is home to numerous national and multinational corporations, dominated by financial and legal tenants, as well as media and fashion firms. Some of the neighborhood's largest tenants include finance giants JPMorgan Chase, Blackstone, and Lazard; law firms such as Weil, Gotshal & Manges; CBS media; and fashion retailer Polo Ralph Lauren.
Looking ahead, the Plaza District will benefit from JPMorgan Chase's plans to take advantage of Midtown Rezoning legislation and build its 2.5 million square foot headquarters at 270 Park Avenue.
