JLL announced the completion of four new office leases at Peninsula Plaza located on North Federal Highway in East Boca Raton.

Situated at 2424 North Federal Highway, the four-story, 163,640-square-foot trophy office property will welcome the relocating tenants from other parts of the market, ranging in size from approximately 2,000 to over 6,400 square feet.

JLL Executive Vice President Brady Titcomb represented the building’s ownership, CDS Realty Investments, LLC, whose dedication to enhancing the tenant experience has helped drive demand and propel significant leasing activity.

“Peninsula Plaza continues to attract top-tier tenants because it delivers what today’s companies value most including modern amenities, tenant-ready spec suites, efficient space configurations, and a highly desirable location,” said Titcomb. “The building’s sun-drenched atrium, upgraded common areas, modern conference and fitness facilities, coupled with unique suite features like Intracoastal views and private terraces, have made the property one of the most desirable options in the market. These latest leases underscore the strength of tenant demand in Palm Beach County and the appeal of thoughtfully designed, well-maintained office environments.”

Among the new additions to Peninsula Plaza’s distinguished roster of tenants are:

  • Poliakoff Backer, a South Florida-based law firm providing quality customized representation for community associations of all sizes, will be taking 5,431 square feet of space on the fourth floor. Poliakoff Backer was represented by CBRE’s John Jaspert.

Leasing activity surged to roughly 900,000 square feet while new deliveries saw rapid uptake, underscoring sustained demand for high-quality space, the report shows. Nearly 1.2 million square feet remains under construction, all concentrated in Downtown, yet robust tenant interest continues to support tightening fundamentals.

JLL announced the completion of several new leases, including relocations, extensions, expansions and renewals at Presidential Circle in Hollywood that drive total occupancy at the two-tower, Class A office complex to 88 percent.

JLL Executive Vice President Brady Titcomb represented the building’s ownership group, CDS Realty Investments, LLC.

“As top-tier office space in markets like Miami and West Palm Beach become scarce and more expensive, Hollywood is increasingly becoming the location of choice for companies looking for quality office space at a much more competitive price in South Florida,” said Titcomb. “An iconic property like Presidential Circle is perfectly situated for businesses across all industries looking to take advantage of its strategic location between both major interstates and within close proximity to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), the world’s second busiest cruise port and the nation’s fifth largest healthcare system.”

Among the new additions to Presidential Cricle’s distinguished roster of office tenants are:

  • For more than 70 years, NPC Financial has been helping individuals, families, and businesses make well informed decisions regarding their finances. The South Florida-based financial planner, represented by JLL Executive Managing Director Steven Hurwitz, extended its lease for 2,963 square feet of space in the North Tower.

“As the property’s ownership, we remain committed to continuing to reinvest in enhancing the office building to provide a best-in-class experience on a consistent basis for all of the esteemed companies that are tenants in our property,” added Eric Levy, Vice President of CDS Realty Investments, LLC. “The recent leasing success and number of renewals executed by the JLL team underscore tenants’ commitment to having their business address at Presidential Circle.”

Centrally located directly on one of Hollywood’s most traveled boulevards, Presidential Circle offers convenient access to Interstate 95 and Florida’s Turnpike. While the seven-story property features many on-site amenities including a café and banking center, additional restaurants and banking options are within walking distance including Jimmy Johns, Picadilly, Sub City, Wendy’s, Capones Italian, Il Posto, Sebastianos, and many more. ​Additional nearby retail options including shipping and office service stores include Target, CVS, Publix, Walmart, FedEx Office and UPS Store.

Tenant-ready suites are also available for lease.

Boca Office Building Goes Under Contract For $24 Million

/in , /by

Less than three years ago, Mainstreet Capital Partners and Davis Cos. paid $28.3 million for two office properties and vacant land in Boca Raton.

Now the firms stand to recoup most of that money by selling just one of the assets – a five-story office building at 900 Broken Sound Pkwy NW.

The 115,986-square-foot building is under contract for $24 million, CoStar reported.

The buyer is an institutional investor affiliated with the NAI / Merin Hunter Codman in West Palm Beach, according to a person involved in the negotiations.

The other assets in the $28.3 million portfolio were 5500 Broken Sound Blvd. NW and a nine-acre parcel.

The building at 900 Broken Sound Pky once housed Nokia and Siemens. It’s now 80 percent leased to three tenants: CSL Plasma, Geosyntec Consultants and Score at the Top.

Peter Reed, a Palm Beach County office broker not involved in the sale, said the transaction is part of a trend in which landlords are cashing out more quickly than they have in the past. He noted that recent owners of the Esperante and CityPlace Tower office buildings in West Palm Beach also have sold those properties after only a few years.

“That’s become more the mindset of owners,” said Reed, with Commercial Florida Realty Services in Boca Raton. “Owners aren’t necessarily holding on for five, seven, 10 years anymore.”

900 Broken Sound Pky was built in 1989 in what was then known as the Arvida Park of Commerce, a 700-acre corporate business park. It has since been renamed The Park at Broken Sound as part of a rebranding that also included a rezoning that cleared the way for retail and residential. The additional uses make the park more attractive to investors, brokers say.

“The [rezoning] has been a big driver in value,” said Brady Titcomb, a broker with JLL. “Now there’s a whole neighborhood that you didn’t have before.”
