AUSTIN, TEXAS – Oct. 4, 2022 – The $22 million renovation of a neighboring luxury hotel has rejuvenated a 16-story office tower in the epicenter of Downtown Austin.

Austin Centre at 701 Brazos St. shares its lobby, conference center, restaurants, and other high-end amenities with the adjoining Omni Austin Hotel Downtown. The property recently completed an extensive reimagination that now provides an environment where tenants can collaborate, socialize, and be productive while at the office. The building, owned by Sidra Austin, LLC, features 326,000 square feet of four-star office space. Stream Realty Partners Managing Director and Partner Brad Philp, Senior Vice President Travis Rogers, and Senior Associate Coleman Jackson serve as leasing brokers. Stream, a national real estate services, development, and investment firm with a growing Austin office, also offers property management services–under the direction of Senior Property Manager Amy Smith–at the building.

In addition to sweeping views of downtown and the Texas State Capitol through floor-to-ceiling windows, office tenants at Austin Centre will now appreciate:

· Direct access to 20,000 square feet of revitalized meeting space across 19 venues, including a 3,400-square-foot Bridge Ballroom.

· Capital A, a restaurant and lobby bar where communal tables and a private dining room are easily accessible for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

· President’s House Coffee, a shop where coffee, tea, pastries, and light bites are available for dining in or quick take out.

· A 24-hour fully equipped fitness center with Cybex weight machines, ellipticals, stationary bikes, and free weights. Showers and locker rooms also are available.

· Food service from the hotel’s eateries delivered directly to their office suite.

· A redesigned lobby where employees and visitors can enjoy casual lounging areas.

· Access to the hotel’s heated rooftop pool with a bar, open seasonally.

“Austin Centre is truly a place that brings together a multitude of amenities,” said David Barry, President of Sidra Real Estate. “Our tenant mix utilizes these one-of-a-kind amenities in addition to enjoying the walkability Austin’s Central Business District offers.” Austin Centre offers easy access to Interstate 35, just three minutes away, with major thoroughfares Cesar Chavez Street, San Jacinto Boulevard, and Congress Avenue close by. Private bike storage and plenty of parking can be utilized in the underground garage. “The city’s Central Business District continues to see a healthy level of leasing activity, with companies seeking quality spaces that embrace hospitality and elevate their employees’ experience so they are encouraged to return to the office,” Rogers said. “Sidra and Stream are reacting rapidly to this trend. Austin Centre is a top opportunity for office users to find high-end, move-in ready space with flexible deal terms.”

Full-floor office spaces, as well as multiple turnkey speculative suites, are currently available for immediate occupancy at Austin Centre. For information, contact Stream Austin at 512.481.3000.

Operates from Newly Established BLP Regional Headquarters in Dallas

DALLAS, TX – October 3, 2022 – Thanks to its boots-on-the ground approach and strong local relationships stemming from its newly established regional headquarters in Dallas, Bridge Logistics Properties (“BLP”), a subsidiary of Bridge Investment Group Holdings Inc. (NYSE: BRDG) (“Bridge”), has acquired 804 W. Shady Grove Road located in Grand Prairie, Texas.

The 203,430 SF Class A building is a recently delivered, highly functional asset located in DFW’s infill Great Southwest (GSW) submarket. Situated on 12 acres, the building offers modern specs including a 32’ clear height, 180’ truck court, 42 dock high doors, two ramps, 49 trailer storage spaces and a 0.45 parking ratio. With a front load configuration, the building is divisible into two suites.

“We are thrilled to add this brand new, Class A asset to our growing portfolio of infill logistics properties in global gateway markets. This acquisition is a testament to our team’s deep local relationships and focus on acquiring functional logistics assets in supply-constrained markets,” said Connor Tamlyn, Managing Director in BLP’s Dallas, Texas office.

The seller was represented by Kurt Griffin and Nathan Orbin of Cushman & Wakefield.

BLP considers Dallas Fort-Worth to be a key global gateway logistics market in the U.S., and has established one of its four regional headquarters in the city. Beyond Dallas, BLP has a geographic presence via three other offices – Los Angeles, New Jersey and Atlanta. The company was established in June 2021 when Jay Cornforth, Chief Executive Officer, and Brian Gagne, Chief Investment Officer, left Brookfield to start the logistics division of Bridge Investment Group. The BLP team is fast-growing and consists of 33 dedicated investment and business professionals across several disciplines.

The team successfully works to combine its operational and development DNA with deep customer, owner and broker relationships, which all played a key role in the successful acquisition of 804 W. Shady Grove Road and other key properties where demographic growth and shifts in consumer behaviors are dramatically increasing the demand for infill assets.

Since the formation of BLP, Connor Tamlyn and the Central team have already acquired three properties and four development sites totaling 1,338,871 square feet, and are managing a growing pipeline of assets currently under agreement.

The property, 2900 Oak Springs is planned to have 250 units with 125 units being affordable or below market value. This complex will be minutes from Springdale Green (an 875,000 square foot office space set to deliver in 2024), East 6th Street, Downtown Austin, Mueller Business District, Austin-Bergstrom Airport, The University of Texas, and Tesla’s Gigafactory.

2900 Oak Springs is well positioned to benefit from recent exponential growth throughout East Austin, including residential and commercial developments along East Sixth, East 12th, and MLK Jr Blvd. Young professionals are flocking to East Austin, and commercial developers have responded in kind. Continuing this virtuous cycle, there is significant market demand for additional residential density in the area as companies continue to move in.
