Berger Commercial Realty Facilitates Sale Of Fort Lauderdale HQ Office Building To Lennox Industries, Inc.
Berger Commercial Realty, a leader in South Florida commercial real estate services, is proud to announce the successful $16 million sale of Health Network One, a 29,890-square-foot corporate headquarters building situated on 2.68 acres at 2201 South Andrews Avenue in Fort Lauderdale.
Senior Vice President Steve Hyatt of Berger Commercial Realty represented the seller, Dino Properties, LLC, in the transaction. The buyer, Lennox Industries, Inc. (NYSE: LII), a global leader in energy-efficient climate control solutions, was represented by Christopher Dubberly, Michael Meaden, Seth Ramey, and Jacob Sanchez of CBRE’s Fort Lauderdale and Dallas offices.
Lennox plans to establish its southern region corporate headquarters and training center at the property, consolidating multiple offices into a single, centralized location. The company was drawn to the site’s turnkey, fully furnished condition, proximity to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, and access to major transportation routes and hospitality options, signaling a strategic commitment to South Florida.
“This sale represents a win-win for both parties,” said Hyatt. “We’re proud to have represented Dino Properties from their initial acquisition of this property through its transformation into a highly desirable corporate headquarters building, and now its sale to a world-class company like Lennox. “We expected the highest offer to come from a developer, but Dino’s exceptional work on the building made it highly appealing to an end user, providing a move-in-ready situation for the buyer and a quick deal for the seller.”
Originally constructed in 1949 and completely gut-renovated in 2014 into a modern, tech-inspired office space, the building stands as a prime example of adaptive reuse development in Fort Lauderdale. Previously a distribution center for Hughes Supply Company, the property was reimagined by Dino Properties with a forward-thinking design that attracted multiple offers from developers before Lennox’s acquisition.
The sale underscores the ongoing gentrification and redevelopment of the South Andrews Avenue corridor, an area once dominated by industrial and service businesses that is now experiencing rapid growth with new multifamily, retail, and hotel projects underway.
