City Tower is accessible by three major freeways and situated in a prime location within its submarket. In addition to being the tallest office building in the area, onsite amenities include a six-level parking structure, café and Zagster bike service.
Additionally, City Tower is within walking distance of The Outlets of Orange, which offer tenants a variety of retail, dining and entertainment options. Angel Stadium, Honda Center, the Grove of Anaheim as well as Disneyland Resort and Theme Park are all in close proximity to the property, providing tenants great access to a dynamic ‘live, work, play’ experience.
“City Tower’s location makes it particularly appealing to companies and employees within the Orange County area given its accessibility to businesses, residential space and recreational opportunities,” said Shep Wainwright, senior vice president at KBS and asset manager for the property. “We are pleased to acquire the property as a strong addition to the KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT portfolio.”
The building was developed in 1988 and partially renovated in 2015. In the coming year, KBS plans to make additional improvements that can add to the property’s appeal and provide a topnotch tenant experience. Renovations will include updates to the exterior entrance and lobby, an indoor/outdoor tenant lounge and a fitness facility complete with locker rooms, showers and towel service.
