    Subject: Akebia / 245 First Street handback question Hi David, I’m reaching out regarding Akebia’s office/storage space at 245 First Street. I understand the lease endpoint is September 11, and I wanted to ask whether any residual handback cleaning is still needed for the empty suite, restrooms, or ordinary office areas before then. If building management is not the right buyer for this, could you point me to the correct contact? Best, You
