Brookwood Financial Partners, LLC, a leading real estate investment and asset management company, announces that Barton Associates has signed a long-term lease for 50,500 s/f of first class office space at 300 Jubilee Dr. The space will serve as Barton's new corporate headquarters. JLL managing director Matt Daniels, senior vice presidents Christopher Decembrele and Andrew Whipple represented the landlord. Demetri Koutrouvelis from Savills Studley negotiated on behalf of the tenant.
Barton Associates, a leading national locum tenens staffing and recruiting company for physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners, is relocating from Dearborn Rd. The firm will begin occupancy in March.
According to JLL's Decembrele, "After what we understand to have been a lengthy property search process, we are delighted to accommodate Barton's requirement/expansion at 300 Jubilee Dr. A tenant of this calibre is highly sought after in this market, and we are happy to provide them with the first class image they we looking for. Being able to satisfy Barton's unique space and building requirements specific to their operation is truly what separated 300 Jubilee Dr. from the rest of the market."
