MEMPHIS-A Southeast law firm has signed a long-term deal to not only stay but also expand its presence at Crescent Center. Butler, Snow, O’Mara, Stevens & Cannada, PLLC will now occupy more than 50,000 sf across a portion of the fourth floor and the entire fifth floor of the 339,000-sf, class A office building at 6075 Poplar Ave.

The deal marks the law firm’s second expansion in five years, with the firm initially signing for 6,000 sf in 2001. Studley, which represented Butler Snow in the transaction, could not release the lease terms–including length and rate–but did confirm for GlobeSt.com the deal comes in below market rate. In addition, a Studley representative says the firm looked at several other buildings in Memphis, including build-to-suits, before deciding to stay at Crescent Center.

Colliers International office market numbers put average year-end lease rates at $16.02 per sf, for all classes. That figure equals an approximately 1.6% increase from $15.76 per sf at year-end 2004.
