Brickell Financial Centre was to this week score its signature tenant, the first rising office tower in the city's core to announce a major lessee.
Law firm Bilzin Sumberg Baena Price & Axelrod is to occupy115,000 square feet of the 1.5-million-square-foot mixed-use development at 680 Brickell Ave., said Loretta Cockrum, chairman and CEO of developer Foram Group, Tuesday afternoon.
The firm is to pay $58 million over 10 years, she said.
The lease was to be signed Tuesday evening. Ms. Cockrum did not return calls following the meeting, nor did John Sumberg.
Bilzin Sumberg operates now from the Wachovia Financial Center, 200 S Biscayne Blvd.
Glenn H. Gregory, a senior vice president at Jones Lang LaSalle, last month named the firm as a potential suitor for upcoming Brickell office projects, citing plans to expand from its current 95,000-square-foot space.
