ATLANTA, GA – National law firm, Lewis Brisbois has signed a multi-floor, long-term lease at Bank of America Plaza in Midtown Atlanta's Tech Square neighborhood. Shorenstein Properties secured the new lease agreement which encompasses more than 48,000 square feet.

The transaction represents one of the largest office deals within the Atlanta metropolitan area since the COVID-19 crisis emerged in March.

Accommodating its expansion plans, Lewis Brisbois will relocate its Atlanta offices from 1180 Peachtree Street to the Bank of America Plaza. The law firm will move into its new offices in April 2021, upon building-out its customized, state-of-the-art workspace within the tower's 46^th and 47^th floors.

Shorenstein Properties recently completed a $10 million renovation to the building's west wing, which included delivering modern amenities, a 17,000-square-foot food hall, a 17,000-square-foot health club and spa, expansive conference facilities and a Starbucks in the main lobby.

Jeff Keppen and Nicole Goldsmith of CBRE represented Shorenstein in the transaction. Avison Young's Jonathan Larsen, Rick Nash, Chandler Larsen, and Molly Millard represented Lewis Brisbois in the transaction.

"We evaluated all relevant class A office properties in the Midtown and Buckhead submarkets," said Nash. "The newly repositioned Bank of America Plaza provided Lewis Brisbois with the best option for a long-term solution with prominent identity and a strong institutional landlord in Atlanta with the ability to continue to grow."

Bank of America Plaza is occupied by both fast-growing tech firms, as well as established legal and professional services firms.

"We're thrilled to welcome Lewis Brisbois to our growing community at Bank of America Plaza, which continues to demonstrate strength and resiliency even in a time of economic challenge and uncertainty," said Jack Corey, VP of debt capital markets at Shorenstein Properties.

Corey continued, "Shorenstein is committed to creating opportunities for a variety of companies in need of future-ready workspace that is accessible to top talent within the North Avenue smart corridor. We are optimistic on our long-term view of South Midtown and Atlanta's office market as a whole, which continues to be one of the nation's top performers."
