MIAMI—Brickell City Tower, a 33-story office building in the heart of Downtown Miami's Brickell Financial District, is adding some high-profile tenants to its roster. The 287,000 square foot office tower just inked leases with Uber and The South Florida Business Journal, as well as renewals or extensions with Lamex Agrifoods, Inlingua Language School and Verizon.
The combined leases account for more than 23,449 square feet of office space. Financial terms of the agreements were not disclosed.
Uber, an affordable transportation option that competes with traditional taxi services, is a new-to-market tenant, leased 9,333 square feet of space for its new Miami headquarters. Danet Linares and Alexander Cahlin of Blanca Commercial Real Estate represented Brickell City Tower. Shay Pope of CBRE represented Uber.
“With convenient access, direct connectivity to mass transit and top amenities, and major renovations underway, Brickell City Tower continues to attract top quality tenants,” says Linares, vice chairman of Blanca Commercial Real Estate, the firm that represents Brickell City Tower. “Brickell City Tower enjoys one of the most desirable locations in the urban core—right across the street from the highly anticipated Brickell City Centre development, and the already vibrant Mary Brickell Village. Additionally, tenants at Brickell City Tower will be connected to the Underline, the land below Miami's Metrorail which is now planned to be converted into a 10-mile linear park and urban trail.”
South Florida Business Journal took 6,373 square feet, representing the media company's entrance into the Miami market. Tere Blanca and Chase Monroe of JLL represented the South Florida Business Journal.
Lamex Agrifoods, one of the world's largest privately owned frozen and chilled food importers/exporters, renewed and expanded its current lease at the tower, and Inlingua Language School signed an expansion. Verizon extended its lease. Andres del Corral of Blanca represented Inlingua Language School. The Lamex Agrifoods and Verizon leases did not involve co-brokers.

The tenant roster also includes Moye restaurant, The Beacon Council, the Consulate General of Japan, Chase Bank, law firm Rumberger, Kirk & Caldwell, and marketing firm Max Borges Agency.
