Watts is also continuing with its spec suites program, an open concept plan for creative companies, with five new additions ranging from 2,800 to 4,100 square feet.

“We are seeing many tenants who prefer the turn-key experience, which explains the success of our growing spec suite program,” Jamie Bergantz, director of leasing at Watt Plaza, said in a statement. “Many L.A.-based companies have gravitated toward creative office space in recent years.”

Watt Plaza was represented by Kathy McKay and Jamie Bergantz of Watt Companies in the new lease deals.

Cushman & Wakefield’s Mark Robinson and Arlene Sommer represented NSBN. Steve Kolsky and Mike Arnold of Newmark Grubb Knight Frank were the brokers for Resolution Economics. Tom Todd of Newmark Cornish & Carey, in addition to Dennis Smith and Cory Campbell of Travers Cresa acted on behalf of JAMS. Knobbe, Martens, Olson & Bear, LLP was represented by Kevin Bender and Danny Rees of CBRE, and Lieberman Software Corporation worked with Chris Keller of Madison Partners.
