After Pandemic Rush, South Florida Office Market Sees Steady Demand

The Y-shaped, one-story office building at the heart of the Boca Raton Innovation Campus was designed by Marcel Breuer and Robert F. Gatje and is the largest in the state. To update it, CP Group added skylights, courtyards, entrances and amenities, like a convenience store, a beauty salon, coffee shops and art displays, which are open to the public, as are the walking trails and the lake at the property’s center. “We want people, when they come here, to feel like they’re getting more than an office,” Mr. Bianco said. “People don’t want to work in an environment that’s separated from the world anymore. They want energy and excitement and stuff near them.”
