Avison Young To Lease 750,000 SF Of Office Space At Proposed Mixed-Use Project In Sunrise

Avison Young has been tapped by GL Commercial as the exclusive marketing and leasing agency for the three-building suburban office component of the Radius at Sawgrass in Sunrise.

Spanning 31 acres just off of the Sawgrass Expressway with excellent frontage along Sunrise Boulevard, the proposed mixed-use project consists of 750,000 square feet of office, 50,000 square feet of retail, and 750 residential units.

Avison Young’s Greg Martin, Principal and Managing Director of the firm’s Fort Lauderdale operations; Justin Cope, Principal; and Lisa Blumer, Senior Associate, will lead leasing efforts on behalf of Sunrise-based GL Commercial.

“Corporate relocations continue to ramp up in South Florida as several global brands and businesses currently seek space in the market,” said Martin. “We look forward to engaging the international resources our firm has developed through our integrated consulting and data analytics platform to help secure the right corporate users.”

According to Avison Young’s market analysis, 205 companies moved from multiple regions to Florida since 2018. Post-Covid office users are particularly attracted to lifestyle campuses where employees can live, work, and play. Radius is positioned to draw tenants that desire to be proximate to current major employers in the area, such as Ultimate Software, American Express, Ford Motor Company, HCA Parallon, AT&T, T-Mobile, DHL, and GL Homes.

“With its central location and complementary retail and multifamily components, Radius at Sawgrass offices are ideal for companies interested in a Southeastern footprint,” added Martin. “As a global firm, our team members collaborate across markets and partner with economic redevelopment agencies to identify corporations interested in relocating headquarters or staking new flags in South Florida.”
