Reducing Footprint While Strengthening Lease Terms
The Situation
As their Blue Bell lease approached expiration, Kaplin Stewart needed to determine whether to renew or relocate. At the same time, changes in space utilization created an opportunity to reduce their footprint.
The Approach
Gola conducted an extensive site search and developed viable relocation options, using those alternatives as leverage in negotiations. This approach secured a rent reduction, favorable concessions, and a full build-out from the existing landlord while avoiding the disruption of a move. The team also led programming, planning, and construction to support a hybrid work model.
The Result
Kaplin Stewart renewed its lease at 28,193 SF, down from 39,547 SF, aligning space with current needs. The project delivered improved economics, a redesigned workplace, and was completed smoothly while most employees were working remotely.
Client Perspective
”An extensive site search revealed several viable relocation options, which Gola used to leverage an attractive renewal deal with our current landlord… Gola’s project expertise with programming, planning, and construction management shifted the burden from our staff and kept the process running smoothly.
