Berkadia Arranges $100.4M Refinancing Of Palm Beach Gardens Trophy Office Asset

/in , /by

Berkadia has facilitated an $100.4 million loan for Gatsby Florida to refinance DiVosta Towers, a 220,000-square-foot Class A office campus in Palm Beach Gardens.

One of the newest trophy office towers in Palm Beach County, DiVosta Towers consists of two 11-story office towers and a connected structured parking facility. The property is fully leased and home to a diverse roster of national and global tenants.

Senior Managing Director Charles Foschini, Managing Director Scott Wadler and Associate Director Shannon Wilson of Berkadia Miami arranged the loan on behalf of the sponsor, Gatsby Florida.

Cirrus Real Estate Partners provided a three-year, floating-rate, interest-only loan. Proceeds will refinance the existing loan Berkadia arranged in 2022 and position the asset for continued performance.

“In today’s lending environment, office is the most scrutinized asset class, and refinancing even high-quality properties has become increasingly selective,” said Foschini. “DiVosta Towers stands apart. With full occupancy, institutional-caliber tenancy, and a location where new supply is effectively constrained, this was exactly the type of asset lenders are still willing to back.”

 

“Palm Beach Gardens has emerged as one of the strongest office submarkets in the country, supported by strong in-migration and massive corporate investments in and around West Palm Beach,” added Wadler. “Office rents are up more than 90% over the past decade, and that growth is being driven by real fundamentals. The building’s location and performance coupled with best-in-class ownership and management made this deal possible. The Gatsby Florida team has employed a class-leading tenant program in the building and continues to outperform in the state.”

 

“Since taking ownership of the properties in 2020 and completing the full lease-up and construction of the towers we have been able to attract, and continue to attract, some of the best global firms to our property,” added Isaac Schalom, Vice President, Gatsby Florida. “By having a hands-on approach to the management, leasing and all other aspects we continue to add value to this strategic asset in Palm Beach County.”

Located at 3825 and 3835 PGA Boulevard, DiVosta Towers was completed in 2019 and 2020 and is a highly visible landmark along I-95, distinguished by its two Louvre pyramid-inspired architectural frameworks. It was the first new office development delivered in the submarket in more than a decade. Tenants include JP Morgan, Wealthspire Advisors, Virtu Financial, and others.

The campus features floor-to-ceiling glass, 10-foot ceiling heights, and a best-in-class amenity package, including structured parking with direct lobby access, tenant conference and event space, high-speed elevators, EV charging stations, and outdoor gathering areas. DiVosta towers in the newest office building in the submarket in over 15 years.

“These buildings are visible 24/7 from I-95, A1A, PGA Boulevard, and other streets throughout Palm Beach Gardens. They are iconic in design and an example of our firm’s brand. We are very happy with their performance and look forward to maintaining this standard across all of our properties. We are excited to begin construction this year on the newest office tower in this underserved market—The Modern. This building will complement what we have achieved at DiVosta Towers and serve best-in-class global tenants relocating to Palm Beach County,” said Babak Ebrahimzadeh, President of Gatsby Florida.

Tenants benefit from immediate access to more than 2.5 million square feet of surrounding retail, including The Gardens Mall, as well as a 130,000-square-foot Life Time fitness facility directly across the street. The property is prominently positioned along PGA Boulevard and State Road A1A, one of the region’s most sought-after commercial corridors.

Located at 7000–7700 W. Camino Real, Fountains Center was built between 1980 and 1990, and features direct frontage along Powerline Road, one of Boca Raton’s primary north-south corridors. Seven buildings serve a mix of office, medical, retail, and service-oriented tenants with on-site amenities like abundant parking and drive-thru banking. Current tenants include Citi Bank, Truist Bank, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Salt Academy, Traditions South and numerous independent healthcare providers. Approximately 54% of the property is leased to medical office users, many of whom have served Boca Raton residents for years.

Situated in one of South Florida’s most affluent residential communities, the property is just five minutes from the Florida Turnpike and I-95, and a short 10 minute drive to Town Center at Boca Raton, Florida Atlantic University, Downtown Boca Raton, and Boca Raton Airport, and just minutes from the Boca Raton Synagogue, four golf and country clubs, and a dense concentration of executive and luxury housing.

Over the past three decades, Interface has built its business around identifying well-located properties where hands-on management, capital investment and long-term ownership creates lasting value. Past acquisitions in Palm Beach County include the Haverhill Business Park in Riviera Beach, El Clair Medical Center in Boynton Beach, and Burma Commerce Park in Palm Beach Gardens. In 2020, Interface entered the multifamily sector with the acquisition of two sites in Boca Raton which it redeveloped into student housing – The Yard University Apartments I and II. Interface also owns and operates affordable and market rate apartment communities in Tampa, Fort Myers and Naples.

Citizens Private Bank Expands West Palm Beach Presence As Wealth Firms Continue To Target Downtown

/in , , /by

Citizens Private Bank is deepening its presence in Palm Beach County with a West Palm Beach office, adding another financial services name to a downtown market that has become increasingly attractive to private banking, wealth management and investment firms.

The bank’s West Palm Beach office is located at 190 Lakeview Ave., where Citizens says its local team provides private banking support, customized client service and access to relationship managers, private wealth managers and advisory professionals. The office operates Monday through Friday and is led locally by Regional Market Executive James B. Meany, with Augie Vulaj serving as private bank office manager.

Citizens Private Bank signed a 10-year lease for a 2,700-square-foot private banking office on the ground floor of the newly built office tower, plus 9,300 square feet of office space on the 12th floor. Move-in was earlier this month.

Cushman & Wakefield represented the bank, while Tower Commercial Real Estate represented the landlord.

The move follows Citizens Private Bank’s earlier Palm Beach expansion. In October 2025, Citizens announced the opening of its Palm Beach regional office at 400 Royal Palm Way, calling it part of a broader South Florida growth strategy driven by rising client demand. At the time, Citizens said it had added wealth teams in Palm Beach, Boca Raton and Naples over the prior year.

For West Palm Beach, the expansion is another signal that the city’s office market continues to benefit from the growth of South Florida’s financial sector. New and renovated Class A office space has helped attract firms seeking proximity to Palm Beach’s high-net-worth residents, corporate executives and family offices. One Flagler, one of the city’s most visible new office towers, has been positioned as part of the next wave of high-end downtown office development.

Citizens’ growth also reflects a broader shift in how financial institutions are serving clients in Palm Beach County. Rather than relying only on traditional branch networks, private banks are investing in relationship-driven offices designed around advisory services, wealth planning, lending, deposits and personalized client support.

Citizens Financial Group, based in Providence, Rhode Island, reported $222.7 billion in assets as of Sept. 30, 2025. The company offers retail, small business, commercial banking, lending, treasury management, wealth management, capital markets and related financial services.

For office brokers and landlords, Citizens’ expansion reinforces a key theme in the West Palm Beach market: financial services tenants continue to view the city as a strategic location for client-facing operations. As more wealth, banking and investment firms establish offices in the area, demand for well-located, high-quality office space is likely to remain closely tied to Palm Beach County’s growing role as a financial services hub.
