The 37,000-square-foot long-term lease was set to expire next year. Brickell Bank’s executive offices occupy 33,000 square feet and roughly 4,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space for its banking branch.

Avison Young’s Scott Goldstein and Keith Edelman secured the renewal.

The 36-story, mixed-use tower features 15 stories of office space, 116 luxury condominium units and the Conrad Hotel. Last year, Mast Capital and Angelo Gordon & Co. paid $72 million for the Conrad Miami.

Brickell Bank serves mainly wealthy Latin American clients. In 2014, the bank was ordered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to find a new owner. It was sold earlier this year to the Swiss financier Joseph Benhamou.
