This lease brings the tower’s occupancy rate to 88 percent, Swig said.

Swig purchased 48 Wall Street in 1998, in a partnership with MacDonald & Cie, an investment bank. The building is home to the Museum of American Finance as well as Rockefeller Center Business Centers, an executive suite provider; Conway Farrell Curtin & Kelly P.C., a law firm and D.F.
