GFT joins an impressive roster of companies to choose this location for its combination of suburban convenience and urban amenities
VanTrust Real Estate is pleased to announce that GFT, an AEC firm created from the merger of Gannett Fleming and TranSystems, has leased the last 5,500 square feet of office space at The Pointe at Polaris. This brings The Pointe to 100 percent occupancy of this mixed-use development that boasts Class A office space, upscale multi-family apartment units, and a variety of retail spaces. It expands the space the company already leases at The Pointe. Occupancy is expected this fall.
“The Pointe at Polaris is strategically located to offer both convenience and appealing amenities, creating a vibrant community atmosphere that makes it an attractive choice for businesses,” said Brice Harrison, director of development for VanTrust. “We are thrilled that GFT is expanding its footprint here, joining other first-class businesses that call The Pointe home.”
The Pointe at Polaris has a premier location along Interstate 71 in the Polaris submarket and is a mixed-use development that includes luxury apartment units, street-level retail space, and class A office space. VanTrust partnered with NP Ltd. to build the project at 8890 Lyra Drive, while Elford Construction and M + A Architects worked with VanTrust to design and build the development.
“When the decision was made to bring together personnel in Columbus as part of the Gannett Fleming-TranSystems merger, we were impressed with the Class A office space and nearby amenities that Gannett Fleming was already experiencing,” said Aaron G. Grilliot, vice president at TranSystems, now GFT. “The convenient access to key business and entertainment areas appealed to us, and we believe this will be an ideal location for our office staff.”
GFTs joins an impressive roster of companies that include Gannett Fleming, Fiserv, Bank of America, Elevance Health, Dwight Capital, Ohio Real Title, and HDR, Inc.
