Canadian asset and wealth management firm CI Financial Corp has doubled the size of its planned office space at 830 Brickell, a 55-story Class A-plus office building under construction in the heart of Miami’s Brickell Financial District designed by renowned architecture firm Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill, with interiors by Italian architecture and design company Iosa Ghini Associati. Just months after signing a 20,000 square-foot lease that will house the firm’s U.S. headquarters, CI Financial has expanded with an additional floor. The new office will total approximately 40,000 square feet. The firm’s expansion further solidifies 830 Brickell as the address of choice for financial, professional services, and global firms looking to establish or grow their presence in South Florida. The 724-foot-tall tower, which is being developed by a joint venture between OKO Group and Cain International, is expected to top out soon and is slated for completion later this year with Civic Construction as the general contractor.
CI Financial will join other notable tenants at 830 Brickell including private equity firm Thoma Bravo, which recently announced plans for a 36,500 square foot office in the tower, and global tech company Microsoft, which signed a 50,000 square foot lease for its Latin American regional headquarters.
“830 Brickell already enjoys a reputation as Miami’s most desirable and best located trophy office tower, and CI Financial’s commitment to expand its space at the building reinforces the confidence we’ve seen from high-end office users and global businesses seeking a location in South Florida,” said Vlad Doronin, Chairman and CEO of OKO Group. “Our team has drawn from our collective experience in the luxury hospitality industry to bring five-star-hotel-inspired features, amenities and services to 830 Brickell that have lured top-tier companies looking for a best-in-class, urban setting in Brickell’s prestigious financial district.”
“With its unparalleled workplace experience, prime location and trophy stature, 830 Brickell continues to reaffirm its position as the preeminent office building in the South Florida market. Its success reinforces our global investment thesis of combining hospitality, amenities, services and experience to create the best destinations in the world,” said Jonathan Goldstein, Co-Founder and CEO of Cain International. “We remain extremely confident in Miami’s future and the role that premium office assets will play in its expansion into a global gateway city.”
“Boasting the newest standards in building design and finishes in South Florida, 830 Brickell continues to attract the highest quality tenants,” said Brian Gale, Vice Chairman at Cushman & Wakefield, who oversees leasing for the project. “830 Brickell’s ownership team’s financial strength and commitment to the asset have been key factors for these types of savvy tenants. 830 Brickell has signed over 150,000 square feet of leases in the last six months, and we look forward to announcing additional tenants soon, as we continue to lease up the building.”
The building’s design incorporates top-of-the-line wellness features and technologies, including ultraviolet technology in air filtration, ventilation, and water purification systems, as well as touch-free fixtures and contactless entry/exit points. The tower’s amenities will include a rooftop bar/lounge with a five-star restaurant showcasing expansive views of the City and Biscayne Bay, a world-class health and wellness center, a conference facility, an outdoor terrace, cafeìs and street-level retail. Multiple transit options are nearby, including Metrorail and Metromover, the Brightline, walking paths, cycling lanes and bay access points. Additionally, some of Miami’s top residential and lifestyle-driven neighborhoods are situated just minutes away, such as Miami’s Design District, Wynwood, Edgewater and Miami Beach.
830 Brickell’s ownership was represented by the Cushman & Wakefield team of Brian Gale, Ryan Holtzman and Andrew Trench. CI Financial was represented by Donna Abood and Mark Robbins of Avison Young.
