Cypress Holdings Selects Transwestern to Lease Newly Constructed Medical Office

Posted on by Sarah

Transwestern Real Estate Services has been selected by Cypress Holdings to provide leasing services for 222 W. Cypress, a 20,656-square-foot, two-story medical office building in Midtown San Antonio. Transwestern associate James Murry will provide healthcare leasing services on behalf of Cypress Holdings. “I am grateful for the opportunity to work with Cypress Holdings to lease 222 W. Cypress,” said Murry. “Midtown is in short supply of medical office buildings of this quality and convenience. While the market is combating uncertainty due to COVID-19, I will approach this project with the same persistence and data-driven market intelligence that Transwestern is known for providing.” Delivered in December 2019, the medical office building is currently 69 percent leased. 222 W. Cypress is in proximity to Historic Pearl, Methodist Metropolitan Hospital, and San Pedro Avenue with access to Interstates 10 and 35. Anchored by Women’s Health Texas, healthcare tenants can also take advantage of the walkability and excellent transit opportunities from surrounding neighborhoods. “We are excited for our staff to serve the medical needs of clients at our new clinic,” said Dr. Carlos Cardenas of Women’s Health Texas. “This new medical office building brings convenient access to quality care to the San Antonio community.”

Austin, Texas (September 24, 2020). Texas-based FUSE Workspace, a provider of Class A flexible office workspace and hospitality designed to help businesses build connections and flourish, today announced the October 1st opening of its third location at 14425 Falcon Head Boulevard, Building E, in Bee Cave, Texas. “We are excited to announce the opening of our new Bee Cave location,” said FUSE Workspace Brand Manager John Herring. “Our building reflects the local ambience in architecture and elements, and sits atop a hill with sweeping views of the Hill Country and offers an abundance of natural light. More importantly, the building is located near everything Bee Cave and Lakeway have to offer. That’s in keeping with our ‘work local’ philosophy, which simply means we like to build FUSE office spaces close to where people live, work, and play.” Founded in 2018, FUSE Workspace’s Bee Cave location adds an additional 30,000 square feet to the firm’s existing portfolio of flex office and conference spaces. Other FUSE locations include Houston (CityCentre) and Prosper, Texas, a half-hour north of Dallas. With the opening of the Bee Cave location, FUSE’s portfolio will total 92,000 square feet, including 335 private offices, 20 conference rooms and three professionally-equipped podcast studios. The FUSE motto, “Do More,” merges outstanding hospitality with business-class amenities, helping businesses and organizations thrive. An important part of that philosophy is FUSE’s Do More Non-Profit Program. Each year, FUSE extends helpful benefits to 10 local nonprofit organizations per location, including free meeting space, podcast studio time and discounts on offices. Organizations can apply by emailing the program at BeeCave@fuseworkspace.com. FUSE’s Bee Cave location is conveniently located near the border of Lakeway and the city of Bee Cave,
adjacent to the Falconhead residential development and is a short 25-minute drive from downtown Austin. The space features 116 private offices, most with exterior window views; seven conference rooms, with seating for two to 50; a podcast studio; two outdoor patios with expansive views of the Hill Country; free covered parking; and a full-time concierge team to assist members and guests. FUSE Workspaces offer members and guests a professional yet casual environment, complete with enterprise internet speeds and high-quality finishes. The private offices start at $600/month and are fully furnished with one to seven electric sit-stand VARI desks in every office, glass walls and privacy film on FUSE Workspace Set to Open Third Texas Location in Bee Cave Page 2 of 2 the glass office fronts. Starting at $8,650/month, the enterprise office suites each come with three private offices and a large bullpen area. The FUSE café provides fruit-infused waters, free barista-style drinks and a grab-and-go market featuring local baked goods. In keeping with its commitment to minimizing its environmental impact and reducing the pull from the Austin electricity grid, the FUSE Workspace building incorporated LEED designed elements and includes a large solar panel array on the roof, occupancy-sensor lighting technology, and a recycling program. Herring said FUSE Workspace adheres to a five-level protocol response with regard to protecting tenants and guests from COVID-19 infection. Each location has personal protective equipment (PPE) available and focuses on intensive cleaning, social distancing and requiring masks. FUSE has already added several members prior to opening and is benefitting from the awareness COVID has brought that remote working is not only possible, but productive. The architecture and interior design for the Bee Cave FUSE Workspace is the result of a collaboration between Workplace Studios and Gary Brink and Associates Architects. The building’s exterior features Austin Stone and wood finishes, with large sitting areas and patios near a public greenspace and walkway. “Our goal is to support the outstanding work being done in the community we serve,” said General Manager Ashly Budd. “We chose Bee Cave because there is demand in the market for our type of business, and it is just a beautiful environment to live, work and play. We are excited to partner with the local schools, non-profit groups, faith centers, and local governments to give back to the community.” FUSE Bee Cave is pre-selling now and is offering attractive pre-opening specials to members who join before October 1. Interested parties can lease from the onsite sales staff, which welcomes walk-ins. FUSE is also providing a robust broker referral program.
