Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office Leases 50K SF Of Office Space In River Landing Shops & Residences

Miami-Dade County on behalf of the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office has leased nearly 50,000 SF in Urban-X Group’s recently delivered River Landing Shops & Residences. The Offices of State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle have entered a 20-year lease to occupy an entire floor, 49,379 SF. The lease will consume nearly one-third of the 135,000 SF of Class-A office space at the Offices at River Landing which is located at 1400 NW North River Drive, on the Miami River just west of Downtown Miami.

The demand for office space in an environment where people can live, work, shop, enjoy world-class dining experiences and arrive to work by boat has fueled leasing activity in River Landing in recent months. Recently, River Landing signed a 2,100 SF lease with David Sutta Photography and Clutch Video.

“We are beginning to see a demand for office space that goes beyond our supply,” said Andrew Hellinger, co-principal with Urban-X Group, the developer of River Landing. “We are very grateful to our elected officials because they are working hard to attract companies to Miami and create demand for office space. We all benefit from public policies that fuel job growth and boost our local economy.”

The office tower at River Landing is a LEED certified office building and, in case of an emergency, it will provide a full-service commercial generator to keep the building operating without interruption. Office tenants have access to a private 17,000 SF outdoor plaza that can serve as a central gathering place as well as an array of national and local retail shops and chef-driven, fast casual and upscale restaurants, an 850’ waterfront linear park, and green space to enjoy.

The State Attorney’s Office, which will be relocating from Civic Park Plaza at 1469 NW 13th Terrace, serves and protects Miami-Dade residents by prosecuting felony and misdemeanor crimes that occur within its jurisdiction. It is the largest prosecutor’s office in Florida and the fourth largest in the United States with 1,200 employees.

“This was the culmination of many years of hard work by the County Mayor’s Office, County Commission, and the County's Internal Services Department,” Hellinger added. “They assisted the state attorney in finding suitable office space while staying within the courthouse district. Retaining the law firm in the district highlights River Landing’s economic impact on the area.”

River Landing is an 8.14-acre mixed-use development along the vibrant Miami River. The 2.5 million SF River Landing consists of approximately 360,000 SF feet of retail/commercial space, 135,000 SF of office, 528 market-rate apartments, more than 2,000 parking spaces and a landscaped Riverwalk.

River Landing is home to national and regional retailers and restaurants including Publix Supermarkets, Ross Dress For Less, Burlington Stores, Hobby Lobby, Five Below, Chase Bank, AT&T, Planet Fitness, Old Navy, Ulta Beauty, Sapphire Prive Med Spa, Pediatric Dental Center, Aspen Dental, Chick-fil-A, Lime Fresh Mexican Grill, Ficelle Boulangerie & Pâtisserie, Tanuki, and more.
