Grady Health System inked a 16K SF lease in Building 1000 at Lee + White for a new outpatient center, part of the overall 443K SF adaptive reuse project of a former string of warehouses just south of the Mall at West End. The project is set to include a 19-vendor food hall, 200K SF of creative office and additional retail spaces.
The new health center, which will provide primary care and specialty services such as cardiology, HIV services, mammograms, X-rays, labs and a pharmacy, is part of the health system’s efforts to expand into the communities beyond its Downtown Atlanta hospital. Grady also leased 9K SF at Cascade Outpatient Center at 3355 Cascade Road — a medical office building 5 miles west of Lee + White, also owned by Ackerman — for an additional clinic.
Cushman & Wakefield Senior Director Porter Henritze and associate Melanie Garlock represented the landlords, Ackerman and its joint venture owner MDH Partners, while DTSpade President Bryant Cornett represented Grady. Ackerman Senior Vice President Frank Farrell represented Ackerman in the Cascade lease.
Grady is the latest major tenant at Lee + White, which is slated to open later this year. Last year, nanotechnology company Carbice inked 23K SF for its headquarters in Building 1050 and renewable energy producer JTEC signed a 19K SF lease for a new lab and collaborative office.
