Taylor & Mathis Managing Director of Leasing Angela Odell negotiated the transactions on behalf of the owner, MetLife. Jon Slater of Studley represented Greystar.
"As the 5th largest multifamily manager in the country, we required a property that met the needs of our growing team while also reflecting Greystar's commitment to excellence," said Andrew Livingstone, Greystar Executive Director. "As a LEED-certified, state-of-the-art facility, MetWest One exceeded our requirements and we are eager to continue operations in the new location."
"This transaction represents an exciting opportunity for Greystar to consolidate its Tampa operations into one location," said Studley"s Jon Slater. "The new space is nearly double the size of Greystar"s existing Tampa office and fits the bill perfectly in terms of location, amenities and overall quality.

For these reasons and many others, we believe MetWest will continue to attract tenants like Greystar who seek a superior mixed-use environment within the popular Westshore area," said Chuck Davis, regional director of MetLife's Tampa real estate investment office.
