Irving-based Koa Partners selected full-service commercial real estate firm Younger Partners to exclusively lead the leasing efforts of 500 E. John Carpenter Freeway in the upscale Las Colinas-Irving submarket. The eight-story 204,665-square-foot Class-A urban center building is on nine acres with prominent visibility along John Carpenter Freeway (SH 114).
Younger Partners Managing Principal Sean Dalton, Senior Vice President Parker Morgan, and Co-Managing Partner Kathy Permenter will oversee the leasing efforts for the project.
“Discerning tenants will appreciate the building’s unobstructed views, which include downtown Dallas, the Las Colinas Country Club and the surrounding Urban Center,” Dalton said. “Additionally, area amenities are some of the best in class. 500 E. John Carpenter is just minutes from the Toyota Music Factory and Water Street mixed-use developments, restaurants, hotels and golf courses.”
“This building offers prospective tenants amazing amenities, as well as a great location in Las Colinas,” said Koa Partners Chief Executive Officer Harry Lake. “We strive to offer office space that provides solutions to companies looking to attract and retain top-quality talent, all while emphasizing our core value of stewardship. We have great faith in Sean, Kathy and Parker to make matches that benefit tenants and Koa, alike.”
Morgan said the building offers tenants a spacious conference center equipped with A/V, ample lounge seating, a full-service café, a fitness center with locker rooms and showers, picnic tables and 24-hour building security.
Built in 1986 and renovated in 2009, the building features 44,000-square-foot floor plates on the first three floors with 16,000-square-foot floor plates on floors four through eight. The building also features a 5/1,000 parking ratio in its six-level covered garage, electric car charging station and plenty of visitor parking.
“500 E. John Carpenter is one of the best corporate office locations in the Metroplex just 10 minutes from DFW International Airport, 15 minutes from the Dallas Love Field Airport and 20 minutes from the Dallas CBD,” Permenter said. “The building is also just one mile from DART’s (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) Orange Line running from the Dallas CBD to Las Colinas and into DFW Airport.”
