Los Angeles, CA – Chris Cooper, Avison Young
Principal and Managing Director of the company’s Southern California region,
announced today that the firm’s Downtown Los Angeles office is expanding.
Avison Young has signed a seven-year, 13,105-square-foot (sf)
lease at City National Plaza located at 555 South Flower Street.
Avison Young’s Downtown office is currently subleasing just
under 8,000 sf of space within City National Plaza. The new lease will now be
direct with the landlord, CommonWealth Partners, and will increase the office
size by more than 5,000 sf.
“Avison Young launched its first office in Southern
California in August 2011,” comments Cooper. “Since then, our Southern
California operation has grown to six offices and more than 100 employees.
“This year, we will be continuing our aggressive expansion
that will focus on further strengthening our full-service platform for our
clients. This additional space in Downtown Los Angeles is testimony to our
long-term commitment to the region as well as the local market, and will
accommodate our future growth.”
