Located at 1675 N. Military Trail, Milan at Town Center is a seven-story office building with approximately 70,000 square feet and ample parking in the four-story podium parking garage.

“This is a tremendous opportunity to bolster our portfolio of office assets with a prime property in the heart of Boca Raton,” Tricera Co-Founder and Managing Principal Ben Mandell said.

“West Boca is experiencing substantial growth, especially in the Town Center area. Milan at Town Center is an ideal option for the corporations seeking to relocate to Palm Beach County.”

Scott Sherman

“We continue to be bullish on the office sector and believe much of the current noise about its post-pandemic challenges are overstated,” Tricera Co-Founder and Managing Principal Scott Sherman said.

“That is especially true in Palm Beach County, which is attracting much of the domestic and corporate migration and will continue to do so. Boca Raton is a top target for many relocating families and professionals.”
