North Charleston, South Carolina Faber Plaza: 125,000 Sf Class A Office Building Breaks Ground

June 15, 2015

CHARLESTON, SC – Durlach Associates and Trinity Capital Advisors broke ground today on Faber Plaza located 4400 Leeds Avenue in the center of Charleston’s premier suburban office market. The 125,000 square foot, 5 story, class A office building designed by LS3P and being constructed by Choate is located at the entrance to The Executive Park at Faber Place and Leeds Park. Faber Plaza will be the fourth major office building built in the Faber Place submarket in the last ten years including Faber Centre, a 95,000 SF office building also developed by a Durlach Associates assembled team. According to John Durlach, broker in charge at Durlach Associates, “The Faber Place sub-market is currently approximately 95% leased. Commercial real estate brokers and area tenants have been calling for a new building for quite a while. The Faber Place neighborhood gives leading companies an advantage in attracting Charleston’s top office workers because of its central location with immediate access to I-526 and I-26, abundant free parking, high quality office space, as well as proximity to Charleston International Airport”. The area is already home to The Charleston Chamber of Commerce, Charleston County Economic Development, and CRDA as well as over 50 major businesses including Boeing, Cummins, Regus, Finkel Law Firm, OOCL, Pulte, Comcast, Lockheed, and Select Health.  “We are pleased with the tremendous interest in this project,” said Durlach Associates President, Marcus R. Durlach, IV. “We expect to announce our first tenants in the near future and look forward to delivering Charleston’s most efficient, productive and enjoyable workplace when the building opens Spring 2016”. “We’re excited to develop this new office building with Durlach Associates,” noted Trinity Capital Advisors Founding Partner, Gary Chesson. “Charleston’s office sector is obviously supply-constrained and this is a great time to introduce Class A product to the market.”  Faber Plaza is being marketed for lease by Durlach Associates and Richard Morse of Palmetto Commercial Properties.
