The Miami-based law firm has signed an eight-year lease for
10,273 sf on Northbridge Centre's 18th floor, gaining class A office space with
dynamic views of the Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean. The 13-attorney
office, one of Kubicki Draper's 11 in the state, is planning an Aug. 1 move-in
to 515 N. Flagler Dr.
"The main desire was relocation into the downtown area.
Northbridge stood out due to its strength of ownership, quality of asset and
location," says Jeff Holding, senior vice president in CBRE's Fort
Lauderdale office.

Beach office more than 20 years ago to serve the counties of Indian River,
Martin, Okeechobee, Palm Beach and Saint Lucie.

"Law firms are naturally drawn to Northbridge Centre
because it's so close to the judicial center. Gaedeke adds to that competitive
edge by providing a well-maintained building with best-in-class tenant services
and amenities," says Kirk Fetter, vice president of leasing for the
Dallas-based landlord.
The 288,233-sf office Northbridge Centre is one of 14
properties in the class A office portfolio with an Energy Star rating, which
was first earned in 2008, and one of four to attain BOMA 360 Performance status.
With sustainable building practices as part of its mission,
Gaedeke has submitted Northbridge Centre for LEED certification in an ongoing
bid to "green" as much of the three million-sf portfolio as possible.
To date, the U.S.
Green Building Council has issued LEED certifications to seven buildings in the
portfolio, including Gaedeke's first LEED Silver, which was recently awarded to
Regency Plaza in Dallas.
