Anthropic, the AI company backed by major tech investors, is finalizing a lease for all 465,630 square feet at 330 Hudson Street in Manhattan's Hudson Square. The 16-story building, owned by AEW Capital Management, will give the San Francisco-based firm substantial room to expand its New York operations.
The deal includes some floors with existing subleases running through September 2028, with additional space becoming available for Anthropic's immediate use. The move represents a major commitment to Manhattan real estate by one of the fastest-growing artificial intelligence firms competing with OpenAI and Google.
The lease underscores continued strong demand from tech and AI companies for premium Manhattan office space, even as traditional corporate tenants have reduced footprints post-pandemic. Hudson Square has emerged as a tech hub, attracting major digital firms seeking modern, flexible workspace.
Specific lease terms and financial details remain undisclosed. The announcement signals confidence in long-term New York City operations from a company rapidly expanding its engineering and research teams.
