“BHI Energy had expanded several times in its former space and had finally outgrown the building altogether. Their goal was to remain proximate to the FP&L Command Center in West Palm Beach, and through a very focused site selection process, we were able to identify space, negotiate a lease and relocate within 90 days of beginning the search,” said Landers.
“Kevin and his team at Cushman & Wakefield were incredible partners throughout this entire process,” said J. Robert Beckman, BHI Energy Executive Vice President. “They remained focused on our needs throughout, discovered numerous potential locations, negotiated expertly on our behalf and were still able to close in a timeframe that met our business needs.”
500 Columbia Drive is part of JJR Properties’ seven-building office park on Columbia Drive in northeast Palm Beach County. The single-story, concrete block and stucco buildings provide attractive and well-appointed space in a campus-like setting with free parking just steps from tenant entries.
