UF has tapped JLL to manage its assets within the <a href=\"https:\/\/innovationsquare.ufl.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\">Innovation Square<\/a> to accelerate progress in the area. Front Street\u2019s role in this project began earlier in April.<\/p>\n<p>Ayers Plaza is a key property at Innovation Square, a 40-acre a modern live\/work\/play research and innovation community. The property provides space available immediately for interested businesses wanting to capitalize on the strategic location in proximity to UF\u2019s main campus. As JLL and UF work with site selectors, corporations and developers on the surrounding shovel-ready acreage, Front Street will work to fill existing office space in alignment with current area tenants.<\/p>\n<p>Existing office space at Ayers Plaza offers an immediate opportunity for businesses to maximize public and private partnerships and to connect technology and research offerings from UF with the market. JLL is also working to identify leases for surrounding properties including the expanding Florida Innovation Hub, a 48,000-square-foot facility scheduled for completion in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInnovation Square is an important part of UF\u2019s drive to preeminence,\u201d said Lee Nelson, director, Office of Real Estate, University of Florida, in prepared remarks. \u201cIn order to compete with the universe of innovation districts around the country, UF enlisting JLL and Front Street will enable the message of Innovation Square to be spread to the potential users and developers who will find value in creating something at one of the country\u2019s premier research universities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Front Street has already started marketing Ayers Plaza in coordination with UF and JLL as part of a long-term vision for Innovation Square and the surrounding area.<\/p>\n<p>Front Street Commercial Real Estate Group is a leader in the Central and North Central Florida commercial real estate business. The company offers brokerage, commercial mortgage banking and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/property-management\/\" target=\"_blank\">property management<\/a> solutions to its commercial real estate clients.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of Innovation Square<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ayers Plaza, located within the Gainesville Innovation Square, draws UF, JLL and Front Street as property managers and leasing agents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":59,"featured_media":1004141587,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21784,21742,21747,21785],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004141584","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-brokerage","category-latest","category-office","category-property-management"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>University of Florida, JLL &amp;
