RENOVATED BUILDING CATEGORY

University Park Building 100 & 200 Orlando, FL MANAGEMENT: Yahrah Yisrael, Crocker Partners OWNER: Crocker Partners V UCC LLC SQUARE FEET: 186,392

University Park Building 100 & 200 are four-story, mixed-use buildings located in East Orlando. Crocker Partners recently completed a $5 million renovation program at the newly rebranded complex. Improvements include: new landscaping, tenant and building monument signage to rebrand the park, renovation of all building entries, main lobbies, restrooms and common areas. Building systems such as rooftop HVACs, fire alarm panels, access control and energy management systems were modernized. The investment in the office center near the University of Central Florida (UCF) campus comes as the company has partnered with the University for a collaboration titled: UCF Visual Art Exhibit. Through the ongoing program, students showcase their work in each building’s lobby semi-annually. This collaboration gives talented artists exposure, and adds a new dimension to the workplace experience for tenants and visitors. University Park is home to a vibrant base of highly recognizable and credit worthy tenants including: Apple, Regus, Zenith Insurance, Tony Roma’s, high-tech related companies and governmental agencies such as the Social Security Administration.

It is currently 90 percent leased, up from 65 percent since Crocker Partners acquired the property in 2013.

Constructed in 1988 and 1989 respectively, these two suburban office buildings totaling 186,392 square feet has become East Orlando’s most sought after office campus since its renovation. Situated on 12 acres, University Park is a short distance from Orlando’s International Airport, 417’s Greenway and Interstate 4 via the East-West 408 Tollway. The park offers plentiful surface parking with a ratio of 4-to-1 parking spaces.

Tenants enjoy exterior patio seating, 24-hour card key access as well as nearby amenities such as the Fairfield Inn built in 2016 and pedestrian access to local favorites like: Ruby Tuesdays, First Watch, Pei Wei and Panera Bread.

INDUSTRIAL OFFICE BUILDING(S)

SOPREMA Pompano Beach, FL MANAGEMENT: Joanna Carbone and Raquel Eagle, SOPREMA OWNER: SOPREMA SQUARE FEET: 18,080

SOPREMA is a single-tenant, owned and managed industrial building that is 18,080 square feet building constructed in 2001 with building occupancy of 125. It has class-A office space, classrooms and warehouse spaces. The building is situated on two acres of land on the southern portion of the property. It is surrounded by 132 parking spaces with a majority of the spaces located on the northern side of the building. The weight load for our parking lot and loading area is 40,000 pounds. The building’s three loading dock doors are located on three sides of the building. SOPREMA sits parallel to Interstate 95 to the east, a beautiful lake located to the west and other industrial buildings located to the north and south. The building space employs a distinctive glass, steel and concrete stucco design. The building’s landscape and modern architectural lines are distinctive in the industrial park. The contemporary glass and professional designed interior brings beauty and a rich corporate feel to the office, classroom and warehouse interior. The roof has a new reflective cool roof coating over and existing SBS system. Our interior designer and architect created beautiful and useful architectural spaces that are spacious, ergonomic and bring aesthetic appeal which is inviting to guests.

Our architecture team is using modern architectural lines, metal, stone and glass finishes to reflect the color pallet and flow of the entire building in the restrooms which will be completed in the summer of 2017. The 30-foot glass atrium on the north side of the building allows natural sunlight to fill the lobby, saving valuable energy resources. A matching color palette was used in SOPREMA’s warehouse using the company’s corporate branding. We took a relatively plain and dated industrial park building and turned it into a show piece of the community. Through the use of a four-color paint scheme, SOPREMA was able to accentuate the modern design of the building exterior definition and very bold curb appeal. Landscape accent lighting and eyecatching islands around the perimeter of the property, define the property lines from adjoining neighbors.

HISTORICAL BUILDING CATEGORY

BAC Colonnade Miami, Florida MANAGEMENT: Kristen Rincon, Colliers International OWNER: PRIM BAC Colonnade, LLC SQUARE FEET: 205,463

The BAC Colonnade is comprised of a Class-A, two-story Rotunda built in 1926 and an 11-story office building completed in 1989, with a total of 205,295 rentable square feet. This is a unique building for many reasons.

The Rotunda is one of the original buildings in Downtown Coral Gables. It served as the original sales office of Coral Gables when the city was first being developed by Edward “Doc” Dammers and George Merrick. It later served as a parachute factory in World War I and the Miami headquarters for Eastern Airlines. It’s no wonder the City of Coral Gables designated this a historic landmark in 1984.

The building has seen several eras come and go, and now houses offices, restaurants and serves as a grand ballroom for the Westin Coral Gables Hotel, which is the other member of the Condominium Association to which the office tower belongs. Unforgettably luxurious weddings and events happen here every day. On the corner of Miracle Mile and Ponce de Leon, the building boasts a fabulous location on Main and Main. The building is in walking distance to a myriad of restaurants and shops and has a Coral Gables trolley stop on-site.

In 1954, architect Thomas Bradbury’s renovation design included three additional floors and relocated the entrance with a new portico to Capitol Square. In 2014, 2 Capitol Square was programmed and renovated for the Governor’s Office of Planning and Budget, the State Chief Financial Officer, and their respective staff who work to produce recommendations supporting lean and efficient government.

The building renovations focused on preserving the 1931 structure and included saving the original entrance’s mosaic flooring. The original exterior Georgia white Cherokee marble panels were taken down, individually numbered, and sent to the Blue Ridge Marble Company. There, the slabs were refurbished with a diamond surface grinder, repaired with a Dutchman patch as needed, and polished. Once the restoration process was completed, the panels were then remounted according to their individual number and original location.

2 Capitol Square interior was stripped to bare walls and the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire/life safety, and elevator systems were updated to current building codes and energy efficient system specifications.
