What You Need to Know

  • Nixon Peabody and Lowenstein Sandler have embraced flexibility but view their new spaces as critical to preserving culture.
  • Lowenstein Sandler is growing from just over 100,000 to 125,000 square feet in Midtown Manhattan.
  • Nixon Peabody has downsized from 82,000 to 75,000 square feet in Chicago.
