CBRE, Banyan Street Capital Complete Over 36,000 SF Of Office Leases At Doral Center In Miami
CBRE and Banyan Street Capital have secured 10 office leases totaling over 36,000 square feet at Doral Center, the 290,157-square-foot office development located at the corner of Northwest 36th Street and Northwest 87th Avenue in Doral.
Gordon Messinger and Randy Carballo with CBRE represented the landlord, Banyan Street Capital, a Miami-based, vertically integrated real estate investment firm, in all lease negotiations.
“The Airport West submarket continues to see healthy office leasing activity as more employees return to the office,” said CBRE Executive Vice President Gordon Messinger. “Over the previous four quarters, the submarket experienced 703,000 square feet of leasing activity, accounting for over 17 percent of total lease volume in Miami, which marked the highest volume of all suburban markets. Over the same period, Doral Center leased 58,000 square feet, accounting for 8 percent of total leasing in a submarket where it only represents 3 percent of the inventory.”
Messinger added, “Banyan is actively executing a comprehensive capital improvement plan to reposition the property, including the recent addition of a new parking garage. These updates have been well received and have resulted in attracting a wide range of tenants to Doral Center, including those looking for their first Miami office space as well as in-market relocations and expansions.”
