Zaragon just picked up an office building in Plantation for $16.55 million.

Known as Pointe 1801, the 99,255-square-foot building at 1801 Northwest 66th Avenue sold for about $167 per square foot. Property records show the seller, TA Realty, bought the building in 2007 for $11.8 million.

The office building is fully leased, according to a press release. In October, a subsidiary of Envision Healthcare Corp. inked an 89,140-square-foot office lease at the property, which was valued at more than $20 million.

The office building hit the market as part of a three-building portfolio earlier this year, and is the last of the three that TA Realty has sold, bringing its total sell-out to nearly $50 million.
