METLIFE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AND GRANITE PROPERTIES ANNOUNCE PARTNERSHIP TO DEVELOP MIDTOWN UNION IN ATLANTA, GA WITH INVESCO AS ANCHOR TENANT ATLANTA, May 30, 2019 MetLife Investment Management (MIM), MetLife Inc.'s (NYSE: MET) institutional asset management business, in partnership with Granite Properties, a commercial real estate investment, development and management company, today announced that global investment management company, Invesco, will become the anchor tenant of the future Midtown Union development in Atlanta, Georgia.
Midtown Union, a major mixed-use property development spanning 8.5 acres in Atlanta at the gateway to Midtown at 17th Street and West Peachtree Street, is expected to welcome Invesco once the office component of the development is completed in 2022. Covering approximately 606,000 square feet of LEED Certified Class A office space, the 26-story office development designed by Cooper Carry is the first phase of a multi-phase development in this prime midtown Atlanta location. Granite will also serve as development partner for the project.
Robert Merck, senior managing director and global head of real estate and agriculture, MetLife Investment Management, said: We're excited that Invesco has chosen Midtown Union to expand its global headquarters and play an even larger role in the local Atlanta community. Midtown Union, once complete, will offer a range of attractive amenities and further cement the area as one of the most desirable local precincts for growing companies in Atlanta.
Granite is excited to partner and develop this project with MetLife Investment Management and Invesco. Midtown Union is an innovative and sustainable mixed-use development offering a high-quality work environment with unique experiences and modern amenities, including a roof deck, customer lounge and fitness center to foster a vibrant, collaborative and productive office community, said John Robbins, senior managing director of Granite Atlanta.
JLL is working with MetLife Investment Management and Granite Properties on the transaction, with CBRE representing Invesco.
MetLife Investment Management has a strong track record in build-to-core real estate developments across all property sectors. Other notable projects developed or in development include Park Tower in San Francisco (in partnership with The John Buck Company and Golub & Company), Binary Towers in Seattle (with Trammell Crow Company) and Park District in Dallas (with Trammell Crow Company).
Granite is an established investor and developer across the U.S., with a focus on high-quality build-to-core projects. Granite is currently working on mixed-use development projects valued at over $1 billion in Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Houston and Nashville. Over the years, Granite has owned or co-developed over 2 million square feet in Atlanta, including 100 City View, Piedmont Center 5-8, Glenlake I and III, Cumberland Office Park, Parkside Terrace, COMPLEX and Inland Tract, among others.
