Press Release Details

New York, NY - October 24, 2005 - SL Green Realty Corp. (NYSE: SLG) today announced that the company has recapitalized 1250 Broadway to reflect the property's increase in value from $126.5 million in 2001, when it entered into a joint venture partnership with SITQ, a subsidiary of Caisse de depot et placement du Québec, to $260 million today based on an agreed upon value.

The valuation and distributions since inception enabled SL Green to exceed the performance thresholds established with SITQ, resulting in an increased economic stake in the property from 55% to approximately 67.5%.

Located conveniently near Penn Station on Broadway at 31st Street, 1250 Broadway is a 39-story, 670,000 square foot Class A office tower, boasting an occupancy of 98.6%. A substantial building wide renovation, which included a new lobby, elevator cabs, mechanical systems, window restoration and a new outdoor plaza, was recently completed.

Marc Holliday, President & Chief Executive Officer of SL Green commented, "Our strong working relationship with SITQ has yielded three highly successful recapitalizations: the first at One Park Avenue, then 1515 Broadway and now at 1250 Broadway. At 1250 Broadway, a targeted renovation program and intensive leasing campaign allowed the partnership to create substantial embedded value in the asset. We are able to achieve these results by coupling our superior market knowledge with our proven ability to identify opportunities and execute accordingly, and thereby deliver maximum value to strategic partners and shareholders alike."

SL Green originally acquired 1250 Broadway in a partnership in 1999, before SITQ acquired its interests in 2001. Since then, the venture has leased or renewed over 630,000 square feet of office space including a 300,000 square foot lease to Visiting Nurse Services of New York in 2005, the seventh largest lease in Manhattan last year.
