The 55-story
tower, the tallest in the Southeast, recently underwent a $10 million
renovation to the building’s West Wing that delivered an array of premier
amenities, including state-of-the-art workspaces and a dynamic food hall
featuring chef-driven concepts and healthy options.
Headlining the list of new tenants at Bank of America
Plaza is Revel Systems, a San Francisco-based tech firm that transforms the way
business is done across the globe by integrating all operations and customer
channels, driven by the Point of Sale, into a single dashboard.

Revel signed a
25,547-square-foot full-floor lease on the building’s 38th floor
and will move into upgraded, loft-style offices that are part of the tower’s
expanding spec suite program.
The owners were represented by Jeff Keppen and Nicole Goldsmith of CBRE. The tenants were represented by Christian Devlin of CBRE.
Outsized demand for the spec suites, which
include open floor plans, creative lounge space and tech-enabled amenities, has
spurred Shorenstein to accelerate development for the next block of spec suite
space, which totals nearly 15,000 square feet and is expected to come online
this fall.
Also as part of the spec suite program, Shorenstein
unveiled lease signings with Groundfloor (7,746 square feet), the first and
only real estate lending marketplace open to non-accredited investors, and
Florence Healthcare (4,106 square feet), a fast-growing company focused on
improving clinical trial data flow to advance cures through software.
“Our thriving spec suite program has established Bank of
America Plaza as a market leader in high-tech loft space that will attract the
most sophisticated tenants from Atlanta and beyond,” said Christopher
Caltabiano, Senior Vice President of Asset Management at Shorenstein
Properties.

“The demand for these next generation workspaces also coincides
with the roster of new dining, retail and entertainment destinations in close
proximity to Bank of America Plaza, creating one of the most dynamic work
environments in the U.S.
"We welcome this impressive group of companies to the
building, and look forward to providing an atmosphere that helps foster
bottom-line results for our tenants.”

The crown jewel of Atlanta’s skyline and one of the
tallest buildings in the U.S., Bank of America Plaza is also home to leading
tenants such as Anthem, Inc., Display Data, Featurespace and Riskalyze.
“Shorenstein’s forward-thinking approach has fueled the
impressive transformation of Bank of America Plaza into a premier tech hub,”
said Greg Dukat, CEO of Revel Systems, a feature rich Point of Sale and
business platform. “The ability to access high-tech, move-in ready space in the
heart of Atlanta was a key factor in our decision to open a new regional office
here.
"Mass transit, great restaurants and other top attractions are within an
easy walk of the building and will provide Revel Systems a considerable advantage
in recruiting top talent from across the area. We look forward to calling the
building home for many years.”
As part of the recent West Wing renovation, Shorenstein
debuted Marketplace 600, a 17,000-square-foot food hall that includes a “Chef’s
Table” which showcases the skills of celebrity chefs who frequently visit the
building. Marketplace 600 features a variety of food stations, including a
salad bar, hot meal bar, grill station and dessert bar, and also offers cooking
classes and digital order and pick-up through the Thrive mobile app.
