At Ivy Realty’s Office Property in Hauppauge, NY



Hauppauge, NY, July 21, 2006 – Microsoft Corporation recently leased 32,000 square feet of office space from Ivy Realty at 2929 Expressway North in Hauppauge, NY. Ivy Realty’s Executive Vice President of Leasing Marion Geddes handled the transaction, along with the building’s exclusive leasing agent, Frank Pagano of Corporate National Realty Inc. Microsoft was represented by Lisa Kiell and Brad Hyler of Jones Lang LaSalle.

Microsoft, which leased the third floor space for five years, will use the offices to house one of its research and development groups.

“Overlooking the Long Island Expressway, 2929 Expressway North is an excellent high visibility location for an established company such as Microsoft,” said Ms. Geddes. “With easy access to area highways and the MacArthur Airport, the property allows Microsoft to better serve its clients and employees.”

The 180,000-square-foot building, built in 1980, is located on the corner of Expressway Drive North with access from both the East and West via the Long Island Expressway. The building features a recently renovated lobby, cafeteria, common areas and corridors. Currently, the property has a total of 37,000 square feet of available space.
