Listen to this articleBond, Schoeneck & King PLLC has leased 42,110 square feet of office space at RXR’s 68 South Service Road in Melville.
The law firm is relocating and consolidating, moving from about 10,000 square feet it had occupied at 1010 Franklin Ave. in Garden City and about 20,000 square feet it had occupied at 225 Old Country Road in Melville.

“We are thrilled to welcome Bond, Schoeneck & King PLLC to 68 South Service Road,” Forte said in a written statement. “The firm’s commitment to both RXR and its new location reinforces a market trend RXR has been closely monitoring —that tenants are gravitating towards assets and landlords with proven track records of meticulously investing in and maintaining properties. RXR remains committed to maintaining the highest quality assets and offering amenities and programming that our tenants need to thrive in the modern workplace.”

“We conducted an extensive search to find the right location that would support the new commuter patterns of Bond’s workforce while minimizing disruption,” Peck said in the statement. “Consolidating into one central location was essential, and RXR’s Class A building emerged as the ideal choice, offering modern amenities and financial stability.
