Cordova Building In Fort Lauderdale Trades For $7 Million In Off-Market Office Transaction

The Cordova Building in Fort Lauderdale has sold for $7 million in an off market transaction. Southern Centers Associates I LP, led by longtime Fort Lauderdale developers and investors Kevin Buckley and Randall Kella, sold the 1500 Cordova Road property to Sunrise-based Centerline Capital Advisors. The transaction closed on April 6 and was represented Native Realty CEO Jaime Sturgis who represented both sides of the transaction.

The 29,333-square-foot office building sits on a 0.8-acre property. Willis Tower Insurance and Luke Brown Yachts are two of the building’s notable tenants. Sturgis was engaged by the seller to handle the discreet off-market disposition process.

Centerline actively purchases and manages income-producing assets in South Florida. The company was launched in 2013 to continue the legacy of predecessor Centerline Homes, a prolific homebuilder that was acquired by Standard Pacific.

The Cordova Building sale is Native’s second significant closing in the past few days. Sturgis and Senior Associate Dan Ross represented the sellers in the $11 million sale of the future site of Advantis Station at Flagler Village on March 31. The duo brought together four different property owners to complete that transaction.

“From complex land assemblages to trophy office buildings, we are making significant deals happen in a tight market with limited inventory,” Sturgis said. “With the off-market Cordova Building sale, we identified the right buyer to execute quickly and allow the seller to have a smooth exit. We are actively looking for more inventory to help sellers realize maximum value for their properties.”

One Of The Last Development Sites On Downtown Fort Lauderdale's Federal Highway Corridor Is Asking $12.5 Million

One of the last development sites on downtown Fort Lauderdale’s Federal Highway corridor has hit the market asking $12.5 million. Located at 150 N. Federal Hwy., the property is being marketed for sale by Native Realty, the Fort Lauderdale-based commercial brokerage led by founder and CEO Jaime Sturgis.

The 0.78-acre site is walking distance to many of the city’s most popular bars and restaurants on Las Olas Boulevard and in Flagler Village. It is just down the street from Virgin Trains USA’s Fort Lauderdale station. Existing zoning potentially allows for hotel with up to 212 rooms, residential with up to 109 units or a 12-story mixed-use development.

“You could not ask for a more well-positioned development site at the gateway to downtown Fort Lauderdale,” Sturgis said. “We anticipate substantial interest in this offering given the scarcity of such properties in the city’s urban core.”

Sturgis and Native Realty’s Dan Ross are also exclusively marketing one of the last available land assemblages in Flagler Village. The 600, 614 and 618 NE Third Ave. and 313 NE Sixth St. assemblage is priced at $7.7 million and has zoning that allows for a wide variety of development up to 150 feet.
