The Shane Report: October 2011

Front Page
 

Things are really looking up here in downtown Boca Raton – the Fall weather brings with it a sense of optimism.

On October 21st and 22nd, downtown will come alive, with “Meet Me on the Promenade”, a two-day festival featuring downtown Boca’s best – royal Palm Place, Mizner Park, East Palmetto Park Road will all be alive with restaurant specials, dancing, a green market, and even a classic car show. Live entertainment will be provided in several locations, and there will be family and sports games, as well.

On October 15th, FAU hosts its first home football game in the new on-campus stadium. This promises to be a great event, and the start of a regular fall celebration for years to come. Go Owls!

The City Council adopted a small tax increase last week – taxes will still be far less than 2007 levels and still the lowest in the County, and our City will continue to provide the first class lifestyle for which Boca Raton is famous. This action by the City will insure the availability of funds for economic development as well, as we continue to bring new employers to our City.

In addition, the City Council has reviewed several proposals for the Wildflower site on East Palmetto Park Road at the Intracoastal. This review process has given the City a better understanding of the development potential for this vital site, which will anchor the activity for a revitalized Palmetto Park Road.

Here at Bryason Realty, we are thrilled this month to bring to market the most magnificent corporate office suite in Boca Raton – the penthouse floor at 595 Financial Center. True Class “A” space, with a gorgeous lobby and reception area, over 20 windowed offices with great views of the Boca Resort and Golf Course, the ocean, and downtown Boca Raton. Other features include a formal boardroom, two conference rooms, a full kitchen and breakroom, and space for 25 workstations.

We are also pleased to announce several new tenants at One Lincoln Place, a beautifully updated office tower located at the intersection of Glades Road and I-95. In addition, our Broward County division recently completed a full floor lease at Coral Springs Executive Tower!
