Related Cos.' 360 Rosemary office tower in downtown West Palm Beach is on track to be finished next year with hands-free fixtures for the pandemic era. The 20-story, 300,000-square-foot tower, which has been topped off, is in the 72-acre Rosemary Square shopping, dining and entertainment area on the southeast corner of Rosemary Avenue and Evernia Street. The building at 360 S. Rosemary Ave. is two blocks from the Brightline station that connects to downtown Miami. Service has been suspended since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. This is the first Class A downtown office building to rise in West Palm Beach since the completion of the 306,007-square-foot CityPlace Office Tower in 2008. The Daily Business Review's annual office guide published in February listed a 22% vacancy rate in the building, ranking third in the city behind One Clearlake Centre at 32% and 625 N. Flagler Dr. at 23%. The 360 Rosemary tenants will include law firm Lewis, Longman & Walker, private equity and credit investment firm Comvest Partners, investment firm Norwest Equity Partners and co-working space by International Workplace Group's Regus Spaces brand. "Upon completion, 360 Rosemary will add to West Palm's booming six million square feet of office space, solidifying the city as a new center of commerce in South Florida," Related Southeast partner Gopal Rajegowda said in prepared remarks. "We are excited to welcome a growing roster of world-class tenants relocating to the Rosemary Square neighborhood and be able to offer them direct access to such a diverse collection of shopping, dining, cultural and wellness amenities." 360 Rosemary has motion sensors and facial recognition allowing employees to enter the building without touching surfaces. Elevators have destination dispatch technology. Window shades will be automatically activated through sun-tracking technology. Lights will be automatically adjusted based on the time of day. Bathrooms will have hands-free fixtures. The building will have about 10,000 square feet of outdoor space with terraces offering water views. Boston-based Elkus Manfredi Architects designed the building with Omaha-based engineer Leo A. Daly.
