Startup Meets Skyline: Temelio’s Strategic Move to 14 Wall

Company: Temelio
Building: 14 Wall Street
Lease Term: 2 + years
Lease Type: New Direct Lease
Delivery conditions: Turnkey
Landlord: Alexander Rovt

The Challenge

Temelio is a fast-moving tech startup in growth mode, led by a driven leadership team looking to establish a presence in one of New York City’s most iconic neighborhoods. Their leadership approached us with a clear, yet nuanced objective: find a short-term lease in the Financial District that could accommodate future growth without locking them into long-term commitments.

They also had strong preferences for a space that balanced historic charm with modern design—reflecting their company's personality: innovative yet grounded in substance.

The Solution

We identified a compelling opportunity at 14 Wall Street, one of the most architecturally significant buildings in Lower Manhattan. While steeped in financial history, 14 Wall Street has recently undergone a transformation, with ownership investing in a series of brand-new pre-built suites featuring modern finishes and shared common areas that encourage collaboration among tenants.

Temelio was able to secure a new direct lease with a 2+ year term, delivered in as-is condition—allowing for immediate move-in without the delays of construction or customization.

The Outcome

Temelio now operates out of 14 Wall Street in a space that checks all the boxes: flexible lease terms, a location rich in history, and a sleek, professional interior that represents the future of their brand.

As they continue to grow, Temelio’s presence in one of the Financial District’s landmark properties provides both credibility and convenience, while allowing them the freedom to scale as needed.
