Brightstar Capital Partners - Corporate Interiors Construction | Structure Tone
Structure Tone is a global leader in construction management and general contracting services with offices located in the US, UK, and Ireland. Founded in 1971, the company is among the world’s top twenty construction companies worldwide, responsible for more than $3.5B in annual construction volume.
Structure Tone provided comprehensive construction management services for Brightstar Capital Partners’ office relocation, moving the private equity firm from 650 Fifth Avenue to a newly designed space on the 18th floor of 51 West 52nd Street. The project, spanning approximately 24,000sf, involved building out an unoccupied floor within a fully occupied building, with the added challenge of maintaining appropriate noise levels throughout the day due to the property management office directly above.
Working with Tishman Speyer, Structure Tone led the fit-out and provided construction services for Lane Management on the 8th floor of The MetLife Building. This is the first New York office for this boutique, relationship-driven real estate investment manager’s first New York office.
For nearly two decades, Structure Tone has worked on various projects for this financial services client located near Bryant Park. For this pavilion refurbishment, our firm provided preconstruction services for eleven months prior to being awarded construction services.
Over a decade ago, Structure Tone completed an office renovation for global investment firm, Viking Global, at their previous offices at 280 Park Avenue. Once they selected recently repositioned 660 Fifth Avenue as their new home in 2023, our team was brought onboard to manage construction on their two-floor relocation.
In 2007, Structure Tone expertly managed the phased interior build-out of Moody’s 15-floor, 670,000sf headquarters. The global business and financial services firm recently underwent a 42,000sf renovation on the 52nd floor to create a new hybrid workplace for its employees.
In March 2020, Amazon purchased the Lord & Taylor building, a landmark on Fifth Avenue built in 1914, with plans to transform the department store (along with the neighboring Dreicer Building), into a modern, dynamic workplace known as “Hank.” Working with owner’s rep and development manager, Seneca Group, and architect and interior designer, WRNS Studio, Structure Tone managed this massive renovation project, building 17 floors of workspace and best-in-class amenities.
Built with precision and efficiency, our team merged multiple locations into a three-floor, 50,000sf office for wealth management firm Corient (previously CI Financial). The renovation featured an array of communal spaces including an inviting reception area and a conference zone with executive boardroom.
Boston Consulting Group chose Structure Tone to expand its New York headquarters at 10 Hudson Yards with a new 41st floor, unifying seven levels with cohesive design elements while expressing the workplace’s progression from past to future.
Since 2020, Structure Tone has completed several projects for the retirement and investment solutions company, Mutual of America Financial Group. This office consolidation and restack– also an ICAP project – consisted of renovating and modernizing floors 4, 5, and 6 and was designed to accommodate 250 employees.
Structure Tone managed the construction of the office for The Climate Initiatives Group, a mission-driven investment and philanthropic firm focused on the climate crisis. Located on the 47th floor, there is a mixture of private and executive offices along with a client-facing reception area, meeting/conference rooms, huddle areas, a library, and wellness room.
