The firm will continue to occupy the top two floors at One World Trade Center. JLL represented both parties in the lease transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A joint venture between Greenlaw Partners and Walton Street Capital purchased the 574,981-square-foot office building for $106 million from SteelWave a decade ago. The partners also invested $25 million in the property&#8217;s renovation. Upgrades included a recreation room and an improved outdoor area, among other modernization efforts. SAA Interiors + Architecture handled the project&#8217;s design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 27-story building features office and retail space. It was constructed in 1989, Yardi Research Data shows. Behar Gibbs Savage Paulson has occupied the top two floors of the building for the last 35 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The law firm has seven other offices in the neighboring areas and across California, including locations in Silicon Valley, Sacramento, the Inland Empire and San Diego.<\/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>LISTEN TO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/step-into-my-office-inside-las-office-market-recalibration\/\">Step Into My Office: Inside LA\u2019s Office Market Recalibration<\/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>JLL Managing Director Mike McKeever represented Behar Gibbs Savage Paulson LLP, while Managing Director Jason Fine negotiated on behalf of Greenlaw Partners\/Walton Street Capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Located in the heart of downtown Long Beach, the office building is about 25 miles from Los Angeles and  less than 10 miles from Long Beach Airport. Both the Pike Outlets and the Aquarium of the Pacific are within a mile of the property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Los Angeles area, law firms and financial companies have accounted for most of the office space absorption over the last two years, <em>The Real Deal<\/em> reported.
