(DENVER) – Hines, the international real estate firm, announced today that Savills Studley, the commercial real estate services firm specializing in tenant representation, has occupied 8,448 square feet on the 23rd floor at 1125 Seventeenth Street in Denver.
In January, Hines in partnership with Pearlmark and another institutional investor acquired 1125 Seventeenth Street, located at the gateway to LoDo, a prime location for office tenants with easy access via road and rail.
A major renovation of the property is currently underway, which will include complete lobby renovation, addition of tenant lounge, conferencing facilities and outdoor space, spec suite program and many other upgrades. The renovation is expected to be complete in the first quarter of 2018.
“We are very pleased with Savills Studley’s long-term commitment to the building and are eager to provide them with the highest level of service. We are excited about the significant renovations we are making to the building and having a real estate firm with the credibility of Savills Studley take space in the building certainly validates that,” said Jay Despard, senior managing director for Hines.
“With the commitment by ownership to invest heavily in upgrading the building and the unparalleled professionalism of Hines in management, this property permitted us to mesh our new culture and forward leaning ethos with a building that is being re-energized. The space is incredible and we feel that our new look is a nice match with the new look coming to 1125 17th,” said Rick Schuham, central region lead for Savills Studley.
Other notable tenants of 1125 Seventeenth Street include Halliburton, JPMorgan Chase, Optiv and Physician Health Partners.
