Cushman & Wakefield’s John Criddle, Joseph Freitas Named Exclusive Leasing Advisors For Cypress Creek Office Building

The Cushman & Wakefield office leasing team of John Criddle and Joseph Freitas has been named exclusive leasing advisor for Lakeside Plaza by Hollywood, FL-based owner Naya USA Investment & Management LLC.

Lakeside Plaza is a five-story, ±119,339-square-foot office building developed on a ±6.0-acre site at 6301 NW 5th Way in Corporate Park at Cypress Creek.

The property is situated in the heart of Fort Lauderdale’s Uptown Business District. This location offers unmatched access to Interstate 95, the Cypress Creek Tri-Rail Station and the Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport. The Uptown Business District is poised for additional development and redevelopment that will transform it into the envisioned Uptown Urban Village, a walkable neighborhood of offices, residences, retail and hospitality.

“With the planned renovations, Lakeside Plaza will be a premier mid-rise suburban office building offering a strategic location in the greater Fort Lauderdale office market,” said Criddle.

“As building renovations continue to drive rents and leasing activity in the Cypress Creek market, ownership hired our team to assist in repositioning the asset to complete at a higher class and quality,” added Freitas.

Lakeside Plaza is currently 77.82% leased with 24,466 square feet available at rates ranging from $17.50 to $18.00. Notable tenants include Bosch Security Systems, Custom Service, The Singing Machine and Bitedefender.

Criddle and Freitas are also exclusive leasing advisors for Naya USA’s 7800 Congress Ave., a 40,800-square-foot office building in Boca Raton. Cushman & Wakefield’s South Florida Commercial Team negotiated the $17.65 million sale of Lakeside Plaza to Naya USA in January 2018.
