CBRE announced that Pravo Construction has signed a 3,331-square-foot lease at Two Barton Skyway in Austin. The location will serve as their new headquarters.
Located at 1601 South Mopac Expressway, this Class A office will allow the Austin-based commercial construction firm to meet its growing space needs for current and future employee headcounts. The company took occupancy of the space on November 1, 2020. Tim Donohue and Caroline King in CBRE’s Austin office represented Pravo in the lease negotiations.
“Two Barton Skyway is the ideal location for this dynamic, innovative firm,” said Donohue, first vice president at CBRE. “Located just down the road from their previous headquarters, this new facility will offer Pravo’s employees a new, larger space with Class A amenities such as on-site food trucks, premiere tenant lounge and even an on-site fitness center with an outdoor sand volleyball court.”
Other site amenities include ample parking, downtown views, access to the Barton Creek Greenbelt and on-site, first-class property management services from the landlord, Brandywine Realty Trust.
“We’re extremely excited for this new chapter as a company,” said Dan Bettencourt, principal and CEO at Pravo. “Two Barton Skyway will allow us to host more project meetings and client get togethers, provide more amenities for our employees and support Pravo as we continue to grow.”
“We started lease negotiations before COVID and finalized everything during COVID, which required a lot of dialogue with our landlord,” said Drew Hanish, principal and project manager at Pravo. “CBRE and Brandywine were both extremely supportive throughout the process and Tim even stepped up to spearhead the COVID provisions we implemented in our space. We’re extremely grateful for Tim and Caroline’s partnership, guidance and patience as we’ve made our vision a reality.”
In addition, build-out of this new space for Pravo will include special attention to designing a space conscious of the post-pandemic office with features such as, ample desk space for social distancing capabilities and a hand sanitizing station for guests and employees.
