While Extell has succeeded in selling most of the office condos at 50 West 47th Street — and sold the upper portion of the tower, which holds office rentals, to SL Green Realty — around 66, 000 square feet, or three full floors of condo units, remain on the market.
As a result, the company has been offering units at the 34-story, 750, 000-square-foot tower to a wider array of general office users, according to market sources.
An Extell spokesperson did not return requests for comment.
