/in , /by

Cushman & Wakefield has arranged a new long-term lease totaling 12,149 square feet for Office Evolution and Venture X at the District Pointe office building in West Palm Beach.

Office Evolution and Venture X will lease the fifth floor and create a superior coworking space that offers a community of entrepreneurs, established businesses, and startups a flexible workspace and opportunities for professional collaborations.

Anthony Librizzi and Tara England of Cushman & Wakefield represented the landlord, District Pointe, LLC, in the lease negotiations. Derek Baker of Colliers represented the tenant.

“This transaction reflects the on-going trend of flexible office providers growing at a break-neck pace here in South Florida,” said Librizzi, Managing Director at Cushman & Wakefield. “The offerings provided by these flex space operators are meeting the demands of many small and start-up companies here in South Florida. And District Pointe, with its complete renovation of the interior and exterior of the building, is attracting significant interest from a number of industries in our market.”

Owner District Pointe, LLC is a joint venture between Verdex Construction and Index Investment Group that was formed to purchase the property in November 2021. As part of the acquisition, the building was rebranded as District Pointe and Verdex Construction announced plans to occupy a floor for their new U.S. headquarters.

“We welcome Office Evolution and Venture X to this building, that will be part of a larger redevelopment occurring around Centrepark Boulevard and Belvedere Road to create a great environment for live-work-play with additional apartments, restaurants, retail, and sports facilities being built,” added Bjarne Borg, CEO of Index Investment Group.

District Pointe is located at 1501 Belvedere Rd. and sits directly across from Palm Beach International Airport. Recently made available for multi-tenant use, the office building allows tenants to benefit from close proximity to the airport and Interstate 95 as well as the amenities offered at the Warehouse District. The office building will soon offer additional amenities including a structured parking garage, on-site restaurant, and pickle and Padel ball courts as part of a massive interior/exterior renovation project currently underway.

 

Cemex To Downsize, Relocate After $13.4M Office Sale In West Palm Beach

/in , /by

Cement producer Cemex USA will downsize its office space after selling its building in West Palm Beach for $13.4 million.

The Mexico-based company sold the 65,760-square-foot office complex at 1501 Belvedere Road to District Pointe LLC, a joint venture between Index Investment Group and West Palm Beach-based Verdex Construction. The price equated to $204 per square foot.

Cemex affiliate Rinker Materials constructed the building on the 4.85-acre site just west of downtown in 1983. Cemex was the sole occupant.

According to Colliers International, Cemex is leaving the property in a few months. The company has less need for office space because more people are working virtually, so it will move to a smaller office nearby.

As for the buyers, they will rebrand the building District Pointe, completely renovate it, and reposition it into a multitenant building. Verdex Construction, one of the largest general contractors in South Florida, will occupy a full floor of the building.

Mark M. Rubin and Bastian Laggerbauer of Colliers International represented the buyers, while the sellers worked with Michael Feuerman, Steve Hyatt and Daniel Silver of Berger Commercial Realty.
