In March, design firm BBG-BBGM will trade its longtime Madison Avenue digs for a 30,000-square-foot, light-drenched floor in the Empire State Building, which is getting a $500 million makeover. The iconic skyscraper is on a corridor that's attracting important office and retail tenants, and slated upgrades will make the area's transportation and entertainment facilities world-class. Last year, Starbucks signed a lease in the Empire State Building-whose revamp will include a new lobby, windows and elevators, and reconfigured floors to accommodate larger tenants-for what will be its biggest location in the city.
