Wanted: Tenants for AT&T Tower in Jacksonville

[mtraininjax]

if the rental incentives are good and parking/transportation made attractive , perhaps that would move tenants back to Downtown.

The US Army Corps of Engineers used to be located in the ATT Tower. Why did they move to San Marco Blvd? I need to ask my buddy who works there, but I'll go out on a limb here and say it was cost of space....

Was the Army Corp of Engineers at one time in the Federal Building?.. I know their print shop definitely was, as I worked at the site many times repairing equipment there.

Army Corp of Engineers have been in the Prudential building for atleast ten years now. I started at  Prudential in 2006 and the army Corp had already been there for a couple years then.

Dude, all I can tell you is that I used to call on them in the ATT building:

US Army Corps of Engineers
400 West Bay Street
23rd Floor
Jacksonville, FL 32202

I don't know my zip codes like Stephen does, but correct me, without asking for mine or Stephen's birth certificate, 32202 does appear to be a downtown zip code? Could be that the Typhoon of information has yet to hit us...

Does anyone know how I might be able to find out which tenants occupy certain floors of the AT&T bldg? Is the information out there on the interwebz somewhere?

Yes, for subscription.  Check out Costar.  My subscription is for the lower Southeast (GA, FL, AL, SC).  It is not always accurate for office buildings, though.

They came and did a presentation at our office for their new app and did not even list us as a tenant in their presentation, even though we are an anchor tenant for our building along with Morgan Stanley and UBS.  We send guys out to run buildings just as Costar does to build up our own proprietary data.  Guys, usually interns, literally have to dodge security, use daddy's connections to get past elevator turnstiles in a building or whatver, and walk up 30-60 floors of office space, checking tenancies.  It's a work out.  Costar probably has a guy stationed in north FL that does that.  Are you asking because the building is going into special servicing?

If the vacancy rates and average prices are correct as listed in Lake's first post the Downtown landlords are doing better than the suburban.  They may have more vacancies but the higher rates make up for it.

Per hundred feet available
Rate X leased area
18.31x73.7=1349.44
16.69X80.4=1341.87

You've got my curiousity up, what industry are you in?  We had cancelled our CoStar subscription but are  picking it back up, on a scaled back version.

Costar has some great data sets. Just so darned expensive!
