Koll Center Irvine Owner Hires New Management Team

IRVINE, CA-Management and leasing duties for the 900,000-sf Koll Center Irvine high-rise office complex have been awarded to Transwestern Commercial Services by property owner Connecticut General Life Insurance Co.

“Koll Center Irvine remains one of the best located office parks in the strong airport office submarket, and the ownership plans to make a significant investment in refurbishing the buildings and common areas so that it retains its pre-eminent status as a premier business location,” says Paul Lentz, president of the western region for Transwestern.

Built in stages between 1983 and 1988 on an 18.5-acre site, the complex is comprised of four, 11-story, office towers with 220,000 of rentable space each. The complex includes office and retail tenants, a restaurant and a five-level parking structure. In total, the center is more than 90% leased, with such major tenants as Sprint PCS, New Century Financial, Union Bank of California and Nortel Networks.
