  • Miami Office Space Can Be Found by Those Who Search February 7, 2017 By: Carla Vianna
    Miami Office Space Can Be Found by Those Who Search February 7, 2017 By: Carla Vianna Businesses searching for space in Miami's urban core have more options than they might think. While vacancy rates are down across the board, significant chunks of space are available in several Class A buildings in downtown and the Brickell Avenue financial district. "There are more alternatives available for those companies that take the time to appropriately investigate the market," said Chris Lovell, a senior managing director with Savills Studley in Miami. Leasing space on an upper floor with a view may be difficult since only six buildings on Brickell have a full floor above the 20th story available for lease. For tenants that can live without the view, there is plenty of open space to choose from. Four downtown Class A buildings have at least 75,000 square feet of contiguous space available, one Class A building on Brickell has a 65,000- square-foot block — "and we don't have tenants of that size standing in line to the claim the space," Lovell said. Savills Studley has found many of the large available blocks are in older downtown buildings. "You're always going to have buildings that are going to have certain pockets available," said Tere Blanca, founder of Miami-based Blanca Commercial Real Estate Inc. She said the market is responding well to the new Miami Central project, which is under construction with 60 percent of its office component pre- leased. The mixed-use development will serve as Brightline's downtown train station and will add 286,000 square feet of office space in two buildings.

  • Building up Brickell the Latest Wave of Development in Downtown’S Financial District — and the Challenges Ahead by Erik Bojnansky
    March 13, 2017 Circulation: 35,000 Building up Brickell The latest wave of development in Downtown’s financial district — and the challenges ahead By Erik Bojnansky Back in the 1870s, Brickell was hardly more than a trading post run by the Brickell family. Today, it’s one of Miami-Dade County’s most intensely developed neighborhoods, boasting some of the tallest buildings in Florida. More than 10,000 apartments and condos were built, under construction, or proposed in the 1.2-square-mile Brickell neighborhood in 2016 alone, according to the latest figures from the Miami Downtown Development Authority. In addition to new residences, plenty of new hotels, offices and retail projects have been built or are now underway. While concerns about additional traffic persist, builders and city officials are hoping that more people will take advantage of Metrorail, a light-rail system that provides free alternative transportation from South Brickell to the Omni neighborhood. A tall order The structures that are being built, or are proposed, are of sizable stature. The 789-foot-tall Four Seasons, constructed in 2006 at 1435 Brickell Avenue, is now the tallest building in Florida, though it will soon be usurped by Tibor Hollo’s 830-foot building Panorama, which will in turn be overtaken by another of Hollo’s Florida East Coast Realty buildings, a pair of 1,049-foot-tall towers called — what else? — The Towers. Page 2 Meanwhile, developer Simon Karam recently submitted plans to build a 960-foot-tall building in the area. And Swire Properties, the Hong Kong-based developer of Brickell City Centre, still intends to build a 1,049-foot tall mixed-use tower near its 4.9-million-square-foot complex.
