Broker Profile

Nick Griffin - ngriffin@findnycoffice.com - 212.982.8484 x 26 When a major European bank needed its first offices in the U.S., Winslow & Co.'s Nick Griffin kept one word in mind. "Trust," says Nick "was the key to this search. The client was traveling the world on other business, didn’t know New York, but knew I was available no matter what time zone they were in." The bank’s trust in Nick paid off when he found 10,000 sq. ft on 6th Avenue with views of Central Park. And when a growing financial services firm needed high profile retail space, Nick took it upon himself to research foot traffic and demographics near a spot the client hadn’t considered. Nick’s calculation was right. The client shared his vision, and now thrives at a 5th Avenue location where no national brand ventured before. "I have clients, not customers," says Nick, who holds an MBA. "I don’t sell them anything, rather I’m their advocate. That’s the key to success."
