Global Views LP's new deal delivers full control to a 247,270-sfbuilding at 7301 Ambassador Row, one of two in the Dallas regionowned by Gershman Properties of Los Angeles. "Business hascontinued to grow and they just needed some additional storagespace," Mark Miller with the Robert S. Lynn Co. in Dallas tellsGlobeSt.com about a quickly negotiated expansion lease without anyshopping in the market. All he can say about the terms is that itis co-terminus with the long-term pact that's in place. Millerrepresented the tenant and Jeff Mercer, also with Robert Lynn Co.,handled talks for the L.A. building owner.

Global Views, launched eight years ago in Dallas, specializes inhand-forged iron, carved woods and hand-blown glass, European andAsian ceramic and cast brass, all bought on the internationalcircuit and displayed at leading US trade shows. A confidentialityclause is keeping the rate under wraps, but Global Views'office/warehouse is more than 40 years old so it's a safe bet thatrent hung close to the $3.02-per-sf low end of the submarket'saverage although it's one of the largest leases to close so farthis year in the sector. The 43.5-million-sf Brookhollow had an8.2% vacancy at the second-quarter close, a 0.9% increase from ayear ago, according to Cushman & Wakefield of Texas Inc.'slatest report.
