Tenant Alteration Projects
Requests to make alterations should be sent, in writing, to the Management Office. Alterations that are approved can be performed only by an approved union contractor. All construction contractors, including general, electrical, plumbing or phone contractors, must register with the Management Office prior to performing any work in the Building. Installation of communications equipment, computer or alarm systems must also be coordinated with the Management Office.
Prior to the start of any alterations please submit a written scope of work, the exact location of the work, time frame of the project, plans as may be applicable, and a listing of the general contractor / subcontractors. The Management Office will review your submittal and advise you of further requirements, if any, prior to granting approval. The above documentation should be submitted in accordance with your lease.
As stipulated in your lease, tenants, their contractors, and / or vendors must provide the Management Office with a current certificate of insurance, naming PPF Paramount One Market Plaza Owner, L.P., Paramount Group, Inc., Morgan Stanley Real Estate Advisor, Inc., their affiliates and subsidiaries and their respective members, officers, directors and employees, and Paramount Group, Inc., as Agent, as Additional Insured’s, for any contractor or vendor performing work in the building on the tenant’s behalf prior to that work being carried out.
The One Market Plaza certificate of insurance requirements details the requirements and wording for certificates of insurance needed for movers, contractors and vendors. It is the tenant’s responsibility to obtain these certificates and to supply them to the Management Office prior to authorizing any move, repairs or improvements within the premises. Failure to do so may impede access into the building for the mover, contractor or vendor for who these insurance requirements are not met.
Trade Union Recognition
To ensure One Market Plaza remains in compliance with various collective bargaining agreements building engineers, janitors, and security officers (among others), tenants must, at all times, only contract with those vendors, contractors or movers who are signatories to collective bargaining agreements covering the work or activity related to their contract. Failure to comply with this provision may result in tenants’ work or contractors being stopped, and the tenant being held financially liable for any charges incurred as a result of any work stoppage, walk off, or “wild cat” strike by any building personnel, or any other union affiliated contractors working on behalf of Paramount Group Inc., other tenants, or other contractors in the building. It is the sole responsibility of each tenant to ensure that any vendors, contractors and movers with whom they directly contract are a unionized workforce subject to collective bargaining agreements. Please use the Guest & Vendor / Access Permit Form in the Forms section for after-hours guest and vendor access and the Contractor Assistance / Access Permit Form that must be completed on a daily basis for contractor access. Additional copies may be requested from the Management Office.
Communications Installations
When changes or additions to your communications network are necessary, your selected telephone installation contractor must contact the Management Office prior to the day on which the work is due to start to ensure that house cabling lines are properly assigned and code requirements are met. Please submit requests for changes or new installations on the proper forms included in this Tenant Portal.
