Bank of America Tower adding $4.1M amenity floor
A $4.1 million amenity floor is planned for the ninth floor at the Bank of America Tower downtown.
The improvements include a fitness center, community hub and conference center and are planned by brokerage CBRE and New York-based Group RMC, which bought the tower for $75.5 million in late 2020.
The more than 20,000 square feet of amenities are expected to be completed by early 2024. The 43-story Bank of America Tower, 50 N. Laura St., is the tallest building in Jacksonville.
According to CBRE’s Spring 2023 U.S. Office Occupier Sentiment Survey, 65% of respondents say their companies are requiring that employees return to the office. CBRE Senior Vice President Oliver Barakat said Group RMC recognized the importance of providing tenants with more shared spaces to create a community-oriented experience downtown.
“The Bank of America tower will be among the first office buildings in Jacksonville to offer a community amenity package with state-of-the-art equipment and finishes,” Barakat said.
The project will be managed by CBRE Project Management and is designed by architecture firm BHDP. Auld & White Constructors is the general contractor.
Group RMC completed phase one of its capital improvement plan, including installing new furniture, artwork and lighting in the lobby in January, the release continued.
