The leases included Marcum’s renewal of 14,000 square feet and U.S. Legal Support’s 10,000 square foot renewal/expansion. New tenants to the building include Adstream America, HBA ArchitectsCogent Communications, Bressler Amery & Ross, Q-nomy, and the Italian Trade Commission.

Akerman LLP is moving out of the office building and into Brickell City Centre later this year, leaving 116,000 square feet vacant.

Cushman & Wakefield said much of the leasing activity comes on the heels of Crocker Partners’ $15 million capital improvement project. Completed in April, the upgrades included 20,000 square feet of new speculative Class A office suites, a 4,000-square-foot Bayview Sky Terrace, a new tenant fitness center, and a new conference facility.

Crocker Partners paid $82.4 million for the office tower in August 2011, according to Miami-Dade property records. It was built in 1969. — Ina Cordle
