Fully Operational, 198,750 SF Headquarters Facility Offers Immediate Scale, Enterprise Infrastructure, and Significant Capital Savings Versus New Development
Tampa, Fla. (June 25, 2026) – Foundry Commercial has been engaged to market Preserve I, a 198,750-square-foot Class “A” headquarters facility in Tampa, offering corporations a rare opportunity to acquire a fully operational campus capable of supporting 1,200 to 1,500 employees.
Located at 8125 Highwoods Palm Way within the Highwoods Preserve Corporate Center master planned development, the six-story property is expected to become available in early 2027 following the planned departure of its current occupant, Syniverse. Unlike traditional office acquisitions requiring extensive buildout and capital investment, Preserve I is being delivered as a turnkey headquarters environment complete with furniture, executive offices, conference facilities, training rooms, advanced technology infrastructure, enterprise-grade data center capabilities, and mission-critical power redundancy systems already in place.
“This is much more than an office building,” said Dale Peterson, Managing Director at Foundry Commercial. “Preserve I offers a company the opportunity to acquire a fully functioning corporate headquarters on day one. Replicating the infrastructure, technology systems, and operational capabilities found within this property would require tens of millions of dollars in additional capital and years of planning. Opportunities of this scale and readiness rarely become available.”
The property has benefited from substantial capital investment and features raised flooring throughout, dual 2-megawatt backup generators, structured & surface parking for nearly 1,000 vehicles, and a serene lakefront setting within one of Tampa’s premier corporate campuses.
Preserve I is located within the 1.8-million-square-foot Highwoods Preserve Corporate Center, home to major employers including MetLife and Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation. Positioned along the Interstate 75 corridor, the property provides access to one of the Southeast’s fastest-growing, highly educated labor markets while benefiting from Florida’s business-friendly operating environment and quality of life. The offering presents a compelling opportunity for companies evaluating headquarters relocations, regional expansions, or long-term occupancy strategies seeking to avoid the cost, timing, and execution risk associated with ground-up development.
Foundry Commercial’s Tampa Investment Advisory Group, led by Dale Peterson, Joe Chick, and Christine Mansour, is exclusively representing ownership in the offering with assistance from CBRE’s Barry Hanerfeld and Molly-Molloy Catlett.
