Leading the charge will be a Dallas-based Stream Realty PartnersLP team, which was up against eight other brokerage firms for theplum assignment from locally based Beer Wells Real Estate Inc., theasset's manager and part owner of the class B-plus building at15850 N. Dallas Pkwy. In the final face-off, Stream's seniorassociates Benjamin Hautt and Heather Shover and associate TommyNelson wrestled the assignment from a Cushman & Wakefield ofTexas Inc. team.

When this month ends, the two-story office building will have anadditional 450 furnished cubicles to go along with office nooks ofits long-time tenant, Beckett Media LP,which moved out in August 2006. "We're meeting the demand of plug'n play space that we're seeing in the marketplace," Shoverexplains to GlobeSt.com. "It's always been an attractive draw, butwe're seeing more deals. We've seen 20,000 sf to 80,000 sf lookingfor plug 'n play."

The empty building is one of the largest blocks of contiguousopen space along the Dallas North Tollway, south of Texas 190,according to Shover. The search, like before, is focused on findingone tenant to re-light the building, but Shover says that theinterior change will mean the space can be readily divvied to makeleases as small as 20,000 sf part of the lease-up equation. Thequoted rates range from $18 per sf to $20 per sf plus electric. Inaddition, the building has an 11,000-sf first-floor warehouse area,with air conditioning, 20-foot clear heights and four dock-highdoors.
