Aetna Inks Huge Office Deal At New Mixed-Use Project At Site Of Old Fashion Mall

Aetna has agreed to a lease for about half of a planned 175,000-square-foot office building at the new Plantation Walk development in Plantation.

The office building is part of a $350 million mixed-use project that Encore Capital Management is building at the site of the old Fashion Mall at 300 NW 82nd Ave. When completed, Plantation Walk also will have 200,000 square feet of retail space and 700 luxury apartments.

A source close to the negotiations confirmed the deal with Aetna. The property’s office leasing agent, Jay Adams of Newmark Knight Frank, declined to comment for this story. Aetna’s broker, Steve Ernst of Cushman & Wakefield, did not return a phone call seeking comment.

The seven-story building is due to be completed this summer, with the first tenants moving in by December, according to a spokeswoman for Plantation Walk.

Aetna currently has about 100,000 square feet at 1340 Concord Terrace at the Sawgrass Corporate Park in Sunrise, according to CoStar data.
