Palm Beach County, Girl Scouts are latest organizations seeking to end leases with Trump
"
"Aside from Palm Beach County, the Girl Scouts are also looking to withdraw from a lease with the Trump Organization.
The Girl Scouts of Greater New York chapter wants to break out eight years early from its 15-year lease at 40 Wall Street — the 1.3 million square foot, 72-story Trump Building in the heart of Manhattan's Financial District.
“As a matter of very high priority, our organization has been exploring options for getting out of the lease and the building,” Girl Scouts of Greater New York CEO Meridith Maskara said in a statement provided to NBC News. “We continue to investigate our options and work to find an office space that would best serve the girls of New York City."
The building’s broker, the real estate service firm Cushman & Wakefield, also announced this week that it would be cutting ties with the Trump Organization, a company spokesperson told NBC News Wednesday. The firm joins a slew of other banks and organizations who have officially severed links with the president."
