“The Empire Lounge at the iconic Empire State Building is another unique offering at a building we have fully modernized, amenitized, and made one of the most sustainable buildings of any age,” said ESRT Executive Vice President, Real Estate Thomas P. Durels. “ESRT continues to attract high-quality office tenants with our modernized office spaces in prime locations, excellent balance sheet and service, and state-of-the-art amenities that provide an enhanced tenant experience.”

The Empire Lounge adds to ESB’s already built-out tenant offerings that include a 15,000 square foot Fitness Club; a conference center; and seven in-building food and beverage options, which include Tacombi, STATE Grill and Bar, Starbucks Reserve, Chopt, Alidoro (coming soon) and New York City’s first Ghirardelli Chocolate store.

“The amenities in the Empire State Building are amazing – they are best in class” said President and Co-CEO Jean-Luc Decaux of JCDecaux, the world’s largest out-of-home advertising company that has been a tenant of the Empire State Building since 2016. “You can start with the gym in the lower floor, which I know our employees are enjoying thoroughly, and go all the way to the bike storage room, which I use myself personally for my e-scooter.”

Since 2008, ESRT has invested more than $650 million in capital improvements to modernize the Empire State Building and make it energy efficient and sustainable with superior indoor environmental quality and unmatched tenant amenities. These upgrades have resulted in strong leasing and employee recruitment, retention, and productivity for office tenants, evidenced by the fact that it is 93.4% leased as of June 30, 2024.
