Ground has officially broken on two new office towers in West Palm Beach’s latest neighborhood, coined “CityPlace.” The two developments, 10 CityPlace and 15 CityPlace, will collectively deliver nearly 1 million square feet of office space. According to Related, 10 CityPlace will feature 480,000 square feet of office space, while 15 CityPlace will offer close to 500,000 square feet. The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by notable figures, including Stephen M. Ross and West Palm Beach Mayor Keith James. During his speech, Ross emphasized the significance of the milestone: “Who would ever think that a 1 million-square-foot office structure would be going up in West Palm Beach?”
The Cleveland Clinic announced merely days ago plans to construct a large outpatient facility at 15 CityPlace; leasing reached a record 70% milestone before groundbreaking even began. Among City Place is the proposed 515 Fern office tower and the recently constructed multifamily building named The Laurel.
10 CityPlace and 15 CityPlace were presented to the West Palm Beach Planning Board in December of last year, showcasing plans for 63,890 square feet of retail space, 9,899 square feet of public space, and an 11,522-square-foot paseo. The paseo will divide the two towers, creating a pedestrian-friendly corridor that leads directly to the city’s newest Brightline station. 10 CityPlace, located to the west, will measure 22 floors and be 327 FT tall; 15 CityPlace, the east tower, will be slightly taller coming in at 24 floors or 338 FT.
Plans originally showed a parking podium incorporated into 15 CityPlace, but plans have since changed, pushing it closer to the nearby railroad tracks. In total, both towers will include 1,366 parking spaces.
10 CityPlace is designed by KPF Architects and located at 550 S Rosemary Avenue while 15 CityPlace is designed by Arquitectonica and located at 545 Hibiscus St.
