One Market comprises the 42-story Spear Tower, the 27-story Steuart Tower and a six-story annex building. It is said to be the largest third-party assignment handed out in San Francisco in a decade. One Market's buildings have water views from almost every floor and command rents in the mid-to-high $50s per sf, some of the highest rates in the city. The complex is 98% leased.

Alas, JLL can't publicly talk about the assignment yet because it doesn't become official until after Morgan Stanley acquires the asset as part of a 10-building, $2.5-billion acquisition of Equity Office Properties assets from Blackstone Group. The deal is reportedly in escrow but has not yet closed. JLL managing directors Wes Powell and Chris Roeder have the leasing assignment.

Powell can talk about his other assignment, though. The 23-story building at 301 Howard is a well-leased, late-1980s vintage asset with Bay views, unique architecture, convenient access to the Bay Bridge and a goodly amount of near-term rollover. JLL was picked for the assignment by Archon Group LP, the Goldman Sachs Group Inc. affiliate that recently acquired the building.
