Some upgrades were made last year, and Bradford Allen plans to invest a further $10 million to complete a full renovation of the property. These improvements include a new roof, renovated elevator system, state-of-the-art conference center, upgraded fitness center consistent with other Class A buildings and a reimagined tenant lounge and food service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, Bradford Allen plans to build four move-in-ready spec suites on one floor that will be ready for delivery by the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/most-popular-return-to-office-policies-surprise-experts\/\">Most Popular Return-to-Office Policies Surprise Experts<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>One Clearlake is LEED Gold\u2013 and Energy Star\u2013certified and features a five-story parking garage. The location at 250 S. Australian Ave. is close to I-95 and the West Palm Beach stations for Tri-Rail and Brightline rail service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Florida arm of CBRE\u2019s National Office Partners, led by CBRE Vice Chairman Christian Lee and VP Sean Kelly, represented the seller. The CBRE team also included Senior VP Amy Julian, First VP Andrew Chilgren, Senior Associate Tom Rappa and Financial Analyst Matthew Lee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jon Blunk and Laurel Oswald of TCRE Corp. will handle leasing for the property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The transaction is Bradford Allen\u2019s second office acquisition in South Florida; the company purchased 350 and 450 E. Las Olas Blvd. in Fort Lauderdale in February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mostly-good-news-for-west-palm-beach\">Mostly good news for West Palm Beach <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is tremendous upside in repositioning One Clearlake for today\u2019s market, Blunk, president of TCRE, commented in prepared remarks. Like other CBDs, the downtown West Palm Beach office market benefits from the flight-to-quality trend, having limited trophy space available even as the area experiences an influx of prominent employers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The West Palm Beach office market started this year off well, with the first quarter of positive net absorption (36,600 square feet) after three straight quarters of negative absorption, according to a recent report from CBRE. Consistent with Blunk\u2019s observation, Class A buildings drove this shift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, sublease availability continues to drop, and total vacancy decreased to 15.3 percent. Direct vacancy for Class A space was 17.4 percent, however, in large part because of two recent deliveries in the West Palm Beach CBD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last summer, Clark Construction Group topped out the nearly 400,000-square-foot first phase of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/200m-indianapolis-hq-tops-out\/\">Andretti Global\u2019s new headquarters in Fishers, Ind.<\/a>, a $200 million project on which Bradford Allen is the master developer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The transaction marks the company\u2019s second office acquisition in South Florida.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":882,"featured_media":1004757565,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21783,21742,21747,32781],"tags":[51674,32789,44543],"class_list":["post-1004757525","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-investment","category-latest","category-office","category-southeast","tag-bradford-allen-investment-advisors","tag-cbre","tag-tricera-capital"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
