AON
Despite published reports elsewhere, Aon has not yet signed a lease for 250,000 square feet of additional space at 199 Water St., where it now has 200,000 feet.
After Aon lost 176 employees at the World Trade Center on 9/11, it moved to Park Avenue Plaza in Midtown and 199 Water St. The return of its workforce to downtown will be good news for the area, but it hasn't quite happened yet.
Sources on both sides of the deal say a lease - actually a sublease from Wachovia - is "out," but has yet to be completed or signed, although it could be done over the next few weeks. In any event, all credit is due Bloomberg for making it possible - his Economic Development Corp. tabled a possible move to 199 Water by the Controller's Office, which would not have left any more room for Aon.
