Designed as a private entire-floor office, this fourth-floor sublease combines one enclosed private office, one conference room, four open work areas, a kitchen, and a private restroom within a column-free layout. Operable windows on two sides provide abundant daylight, fresh-air capability, and views toward Paley Park, while the ten-and-one-half-foot ceiling height gives the relatively compact floor an open vertical dimension. The offering is restricted to nonprofit tenants and carries a sublease term through March 31, 2032, with an additional five-year option noted in the offering materials.

The floor reads as two substantial working zones connected through a narrower central service core. At the north end, a large windowed room accommodates two separate desk positions along the perimeter and a central six-person meeting table, allowing the area to function simultaneously as an executive workspace, collaborative studio, or informal meeting environment. Tall built-in bookcases and storage line the walls, while a seating area with three leather lounge chairs and a coffee table creates a less formal place for conversation beside the windows.

Moving toward the middle of the floor brings the circulation alongside the building core, where the private restroom and enclosed kitchen are grouped together rather than consuming valuable perimeter frontage. This organization leaves the usable north and south ends largely uninterrupted and helps maintain the privacy associated with a full-floor office. The kitchen provides a dedicated employee support area away from the primary desks and meeting spaces.

The south end transitions into the more formal portion of the workplace. A large conference room is centered around an eight-seat table with extensive built-in book storage, display cabinetry, and a monitor, making it appropriate for board meetings, presentations, donor meetings, or team sessions. Beyond it, the remaining windowed work area incorporates another meeting table, desk positions, substantial filing and storage, and a lounge grouping at the southern perimeter.

With no shared tenant space interrupting the plan, the full-floor identity provides unusual organizational privacy for a smaller office. Access to the building’s community room further extends meeting and event capacity beyond the suite itself, while the Fifth Avenue location places the workplace immediately near the E and F subway lines.

Notes: The full 4th floor of One East 53rd Street, part of the Paley Foundation’s Fifth Avenue estate, offers an exceptional workplace overlooking the charming and quiet Paley Park, with abundant natural light and a welcoming atmosphere. The building features a large reception with rotating art work as well as a shared amenity space featuring a stage—an ideal space for gatherings, programs, performances, and special events. A rare opportunity for a nonprofit to establish its home in a truly special Midtown setting.
