PHILADELPHIA—The Building Owners and Managers Association Philadelphia named One Liberty Place and The Shops at Liberty Place as winners of The Outstanding Building of the Year Awards. The TOBY Awards recognize excellence in building operation and property management.
One Liberty Place and The Shops at Liberty Place are both owned by Metropolis Investment Holdings and managed by Cushman & Wakefield.
For the second consecutive year, The Shops at Liberty Place received the TOBY Award for the Urban Retail category. One Liberty Place received the TOBY Award for the Over 1 Million Square Feet category, along with a Best of the Best Award for Best Infrastructure and the Grand TOBY Award, presented to the building with the highest overall score in the competition.
“One Liberty Place and The Shops at Liberty Place are symbolic of our commitment to running best in class assets,” says Kevin Kuzemchak, president of Metropolis Investment Holdings. “I applaud the Cushman & Wakefield management and leasing teams for their commitment and dedication to ensuring our properties remain relevant in the market. We are proud of the team's accomplishments and thank BOMA Philadelphia for this recognition.”
One Liberty Place and The Shops of Liberty Place will continue onto the Regional TOBY Awards, held in April 2017, where they will compete with properties from the 17 cities that represent the BOMA's MidAtlantic Conference (MAC) Region.
“The dedication of our teams to our owners and tenants is unparalleled,” says Missy A. Quinn, managing director, asset services at Cushman & Wakefield. I am confident that both One Liberty Place and The Shops at Liberty will represent BOMA Philadelphia well at the Regional TOBY Awards in April.”
Built in 1987, the property was designed by internationally acclaimed architect Helmut Jahn of Murphy/Jahn. One Liberty Place is a 62-story, 1.2 million square-foot class A office building. One Liberty Place was recently designated LEED Silver – LEED for Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance.
