Regus, a global leader in flexible office spaces, has secured a long-term lease for the entirety of 429 Lenox, a 45,789-square-foot Class A boutique office building in Miami Beach’s South of Fifth neighborhood. This marks Regus’ largest footprint in the area, reflecting the growing demand for coworking spaces in South Florida.
The lease was brokered by Colliers South Florida, with Vice Chair Stephen Rutchik and Vice President Ana Paula representing the landlord, Azora Exan. JLL’s Adam Bernstein represented Regus in the transaction.
“429 Lenox's prime location in the highly sought-after South of Fifth neighborhood made it an exceptional choice for Regus’ expansion,” said Paula. “As the market shifts towards prioritizing lifestyle, prime location, and modern workspaces, the property offers an unmatched blend of unique rooftop access, plug-and-play office solutions, and contemporary amenities. Its proximity to the MacArthur Causeway ensures seamless access in and out of Miami Beach, positioning it as an unparalleled option for today’s forward-thinking businesses.”
Designed by renowned architect Kobi Karp, 429 Lenox features contemporary office spaces tailored for businesses seeking a prestigious address in a dynamic, amenity-rich environment. Key features include a rooftop deck, on-site parking, and prime signage opportunities. Its South of Fifth location provides easy access to luxury residences, upscale dining, and Miami’s iconic beaches.
Arturo Vinueza, Vice President of Investments at Azora Exan, highlighted the significance of the lease: “We are excited to welcome Regus at 429 Lenox, marking a new chapter for our office building in the vibrant South of Fifth neighborhood. This lease highlights the strength of premium office space in Miami, particularly in walkable, amenity-rich areas, aligning with our national office investment thesis. We look forward to welcoming a diverse community of entrepreneurs and professionals who will thrive in this environment.”
Regus plans to operate the location under its SPACES brand, emphasizing flexibility and innovation in workspace solutions. The new office is set to open in the fourth quarter of 2024 and will join Regus’ other Miami Beach locations, solidifying its presence in the market.
The full-building lease underscores the increasing appeal of coworking spaces in Miami Beach, where office vacancy rates remain low, recorded at just 8.7% in Q3 2024. As companies continue to embrace hybrid work models, demand for adaptable, lifestyle-driven workspaces is surging. Coworking spaces like those offered by Regus cater to businesses seeking environments that enhance productivity and work-life balance.
The broader trend aligns with a post-pandemic shift in workplace priorities, with businesses opting for premium, flexible spaces in prime locations. The 429 Lenox lease reflects this evolution, cementing Miami Beach’s status as a competitive and vibrant office market.
