Levin Johnston Directs $20 Million Land Sale for Development of 60-Unit Townhome Community in Santa Clara County, CA


Adam Levin
SANTA CLARA COUNTY, CA  Levin Johnston of Marcus and Millichap, one of the top brokerage teams in the U.S. specializing in wealth management through commercial real estate investments, has successfully directed the $20 million sale of a 3.26-acre land parcel on which a 60-unit townhome community will be developed in Santa Clara County.
Adam Levin, Senior Managing Director of Levin Johnston represented the buyer, a local developer, as well as the seller, a high-net worth individual, in the transaction.
“Demand for for-sale housing in Bay Area submarkets is at an all-time high,” explains Levin. “Driven by robust economic growth and rapidly increasing employment, Bay Area residents need new, quality housing that is close to metro areas.”
Levin points to the extremely low 2.8 percent unemployment rate in the San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara MSA and the region’s increase of 7,600 jobs from January to February of 2019 alone as continue evidence of the need for new housing options.



Further, Santa Clara County is fueled by some of the largest tech hubs in the nation, including Intel, Fujitsu and Hitachi. The surrounding areas serve as headquarters to tech companies such as Apple, Google, Facebook, Tesla and Oracle, among others, all of which attract a strong workforce in need of housing.
 “Statewide, between 2011 and 2016, California only added 171 homes for every 1,000 people,” says Levin. “As the region’s growth increases exponentially, developers who can find developable land have a tremendous opportunity to create value for themselves and for the community as a whole. We are fortunate to have deep knowledge of this market’s dynamic intricacies and can help both buyers and sellers find strong opportunities like this one.”
The land parcel is currently occupied by 54 vacant mobile home units and is entitled for new development. The developer plans to deliver 60 three-story for-sale townhouses on the land.

WeWork continues growth with lease at 101 North in downtown Phoenix, AZ


101 North, 101 North First Avenue, Copper Square Area,
 Downtown Phoenix, AZ

PHOENIX, AZ – The Phoenix office of JLL has completed a lease at 101 North that will establish the first downtown Phoenix location for WeWork, an New York-based company providing shared workspaces for technology startup subculture communities and services for entrepreneurs, freelancers, startups, small businesses and large enterprises.

Ryan Bartos
WeWork will lease four full floors, with the option to take additional floors, at 101 North, a Class A office tower owned and managed by ScanlanKemperBard (SKB). 

It becomes WeWork’s third Valley location, joining recently announced leases for the company at Camelback Esplanade in Phoenix’s Camelback Corridor and Tempe Watermark in downtown Tempe.

JLL Executive Vice President Ryan Bartos, Managing Director Andrew Medley and Associate Kyle Seeger represented WeWork in the lease negotiations. 

JLL Managing Director John Bonnell, Executive Vice President Brett Abramson and Senior Vice President Chris Latvaaho represented SKB as the exclusive leasing brokers for 101 North.
 
Andrew Medley
The 101 North building is located at 101 N. First Ave. in downtown Phoenix’s Copper Square, at the southeast corner of First Avenue and Monroe Street. 

It sits adjacent to two Phoenix Metro Light Rail stops and is minutes from Interstate 10, Interstate 17, Piestewa Freeway and Sky Harbor International Airport.

As Arizona’s second tallest building, 101 North totals 359,256 square feet and 31 stories of Energy Star space, with a six-level covered parking garage and sweeping views of the city and surrounding mountains. 

A major 2017 renovation added a shared conference room for tenant use and a modern, upgraded lobby with multiple restaurant concepts including Friends, The Monroe, Mole, Bosa Donuts and Spoonz Café.

Opening for the new WeWork location is slated for fall 2019. The company will occupy space on the building’s 8th, 28th, 29th and 31st floors, with the option to expand to additional floors.

Kyle Seeger
“WeWork loved the ground floor amenity base and signage opportunities at 101 North,” said Bartos. 

“Thanks to recent renovations, the building also allows WeWork a quick speed to market – driven by the constantly increasing demand for coworking space – and as an added bonus has an 8th floor deck that will allow for a centralized indoor-outdoor amenity deck for WeWork members that is unlike any other in the downtown market.”

Additional amenities at 101 North include fiber connectivity, on-site concierge and property management.

 It is also within walking distance of the Phoenix Convention Center, Symphony Hall, Chase Field, Talking Stick Resort Arena and Comercia Theatre, and less than four miles from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. Collectively, this gives the property a 96 percent walkability score.
