Back in '97 I became aware of "the 511 building" (511 11th Avenue), it's the old Control Data building. At the time, rent was almost $1/sqft on month-to-month basis .. and got cheaper with a longer lease. The beauty is, if you're in that building, you don't pay any line charges. 2001? They're basically booked solid, it gets worse though: a "janitor's closet" goes for $750/month, for $1000/month you might be able to walk in. (Both include a/c!) My question is -- aside from what was gofast.net, what other buildings are "on the backbone" and have a line-charge-free policy? -Jay J p.s. At 511, if you rent 10,000 sq-ft .. you get the old $1/sqft rate.
