Client story
CollegeVine: Education’s future runs here. In a space built for clarity.
What Nomad did for CollegeVine, in New York
Education expertise meets architectural excellence.
The Challenge
When we met the team at CollegeVine, they were focused on bringing their distributed team of education experts back together under one roof. The goal: secure a space in the heart of Flatiron–Union Square that felt inspiring, collaborative, and distinctly CollegeVine.
We toured several properties – until a rare opportunity surfaced right in our own portfolio.
The Solution
A unique sublease opportunity quietly hit the market at 900 Broadway, one of the most architecturally striking buildings in Union Square. The building was designed by Stanford White-the legendary architect behind the Washington Square Arch and Madison Square Garden II-the space featured double-height ceilings, arched windows, and sweeping views over Broadway.
The space itself is more than just beautiful – it’s award-winning. The space has been recognized by Architectural Digest for its blend of historic detailing and modern functionality.
We knew the fit was perfect. But we also knew we’d have to move fast.
The landlord informed us the space had multiple offers on the table. Because of our long-standing relationship and deep understanding of the asset, we were able to step in directly, negotiate terms, and secure the lease within 48 hours – putting our client at the front of the line.
A look inside the space that brings the story to life.
The Results
CollegeVine now operates from one of Union Square’s most iconic floors-a headquarters that reflects both their mission and momentum.
- Landmark architecture in the heart of Flatiron
- Double-height ceilings + arched windows for natural light and energy
- Recognized by Architectural Digest for design excellence

This deal is a perfect example of how Nomad goes above and beyond – leveraging every connection and asset in our portfolio to get clients exactly what they need, when they need it.
“We couldn’t have done this without Nomad’s access and speed. The space feels like a true home for our team.”
