And Rivera Point Development Group CEO Rodrigo Azpurua announced at the opening ceremony that he already has leasing commitments from more than 20 professional and entrepreneurial firms, he said.

“Bringing the Miramar market its first new Class A office development since 2009 has proved a powerful draw,” Azpurua said, adding that a second building is on the way. Azpurau said a total of $17 million in EB-5 funding is in place for the next phase of the Professional Center at Riviera Point office complex. – Christopher Cameron
