Level Group Announces Move To New Office Space

NEW YORK - April 3, 2017 - PRLog -- Level Group (http://www.levelgroup.com), an innovative, full-service residential and commercial real estate brokerage company that introduced the 100% commission model in New York City, today announced that the firm is moving into new office space on the 24^th floor at 211 E. 43^rd St.

The move is necessitated by the firm's rapid growth. Under the direction of Chief Operating Officer Michael Barbolla, Level has more than doubled its number of agents within the past year.  "Since we have expanded and added new training and education programs and increased the number of special events at the firm's offices, the new space will give us the capacity to accommodate this positive growth," said Michael Greenberg, CEO and General Counsel, Level Group.

Conveniently located, the new offices are just one block east of Grand Central Station. "The street ends at the east entrance of Grand Central, which means it's a quiet street with relatively light traffic," said Larry Link, Level Group's president. "It's centrally located and easy for everyone to get to, yet it's a little oasis of serenity in Midtown."

Link adds that the E. 43^rd Street location is a Class A building whose new owners have undertaken a top to bottom renovation, including the building's facade. "The main floor elevator lobby, which has a rotating art show, has a modern minimalist aesthetic with white marble and recessed lighting," he said. "Our space will be absolutely first class once renovations are complete."

Level Group plans a large, open layout for its 24^th floor space. With 12-foot ceilings and thirteen windows on three sides, including nine of which face south, the space is sun filled. "The open plan contributes to a beautiful working environment that will function very well for Level Group agents," said Greenberg.

The forward thinking design will feature a gray and white palate throughout the space that also has glass fronted offices, exposed industrial concrete ceilings, and high quality LED lighting. "It has the aesthetics of a high tech startup," Greenberg said. "It perfectly suits Level Group's innovative, entrepreneurial spirit."

Link noted that the space will have double the number of work stations dedicated to agents as well as conference rooms and client meeting spaces. Level Group has purchased two unique soundproof booths that provide quiet spaces for work focus or meetings with clients. "The booths are strategically spaced quiet spaces within the open office environment," he explained. "When you close the doors of one of the booths, you can't hear someone speak on the other side. It's even better than a traditional conference room."

Level Group will complete its relocation in two stages. The firm will leave its current space on April 30 and move into temporary space at the 211 E. 43^rd street location, taking up the entire 23^rd floor. The final move, an easy shift from the 23^rd to the 24^th floor, is scheduled for August 1.
