GoldenTree Asset Management, Vista Investments of Florida, more | downtown West Palm Beach
Steve Ross scored new tenants and lease renewals at his downtown West Palm Beach office towers.
New York-based global asset manager GoldenTree Asset Management, founded by Steven A. Tananbaum; Chicago-based Vista Investments of Florida, founded by Tom Tisbo; and New York-based private equity firm OceanSound Partners will open at the 25-story One Flagler building once it’s completed this fall, according to a Related Ross news release. The tower is at the foot of the Royal Park Bridge.
GoldenTree, which has more than $55 billion in assets under management, has had a presence in West Palm Beach for over a decade, the release says. Its office now is at Ross’ Phillips Point tower at 777 South Flagler Drive, according to the company’s website.
OceanSound invests in technology and technology-enabled services companies. The One Flagler office will be its first outside New York, the release says.
At the 18-story CityPlace Tower within the CityPlace mixed-use complex, Amerant Bank will open an office early next year, and Miami Lakes-based interventional cardiovascular technologies firm, Cordis US, will open this fall, according to the release.
Also, law firm Holland & Knight signed a five-year lease renewal at Phillips Point, the release says. At the 17-story Esperanté Corporate Center at 222 Lakeview Avenue, a private equity firm renewed its lease.
A spokesperson for Related Ross declined to provide the square footage that the tenants leased.
Ross formed Related Ross this year after founding New York-based Related Companies 52 years ago. Related Ross essentially carved out Related Companies’ Southeast division and now oversees all of the South Florida assets. In downtown West Palm, Ross has amassed an empire of at least nine office buildings that he either purchased or completed since 2021, or plans to develop.
Ross, who is chairman and CEO of West Palm-based Related Ross, remains the single largest shareholder in Related Companies.
