PHOENIX—The Phoenix office of JLL has been selected as the exclusive leasing agent for the four Class A office towers at The Esplanade, a one-million-square-foot landmark mixed-use project located at 24th Street and Camelback Road, in the heart of Phoenix's prestigious Camelback Corridor.

JLL managing director John Bonnell, and JLL vice presidents Brett Abramson and Greg McMillan will direct all office leasing efforts for The Esplanade's 10- and 11-story, class A office towers. The buildings were constructed between 1989 and 2002, and represent a total 906,459 square feet of space at 2425, 2525, 2575 and 2555 E. Camelback Rd. Each tower features high-end finishes, panoramic views of Camelback Mountain and Piestewa Peak, private balconies, 24-hour security, on-site conference and fitness facilities, concierge and abundant covered parking.

JLL is also working with property owner by MetLife, Inc. as it implements extensive, project-wide renovations that are delivering new building lobbies, new corridors, an upgraded amenity package and new speculative office suites.

“The Esplanade represents some of the Valley's nicest office space in an equally premier location. It is one of those iconic projects that checks virtually every box on the tenant and employee wish list,” says Bonnell. “It also has an owner that recognizes the value of these advantages, and will make the investment necessary to ensure The Esplanade remains a market leader for the long term.”

In addition to its office towers, The Esplanade includes a first-floor retail component, fine and casual dining, a 14-screen AMC Theatre, a 291-room Ritz Carlton Hotel, and a pedestrian-friendly design that links the project to neighboring Biltmore Fashion Park.

The Esplanade is within one mile of Piestewa Freeway/State Route 51 and minutes from the Valley's Loop freeway system, Interstate 10, Downtown Phoenix and Sky Harbor International Airport. These factors combined to rank Camelback Road as #34 on JLL's list of Most Expensive U.S. Streets for Office Space in 2013—an overview of the nation's most premier, in-demand submarkets for office space.
