SAN JOSE, CALIF. — A partnership between SteelWave (formerly Legacy Partners Commercial) and USAA Real Estate Co. has broken ground on Phase II of America Center in San Jose. This phase will add 450,000 square feet of office space in two six-story buildings.
America Center is situated off Highway 101 at the junction of Highway 237 and Great America Parkway. It sits adjacent to the 175-room Aloft Hotel, and is surrounded by a 30-acre open space preserve, with access to public jogging and bicycle paths.
The new phase will bring America Center to a total of 885,000 square feet. The project will eventually include 1.1 million square feet of Class A office space once Phase III is completed.
Phase I is 88 percent leased. It is occupied by tech companies like Polycom and Flextronics International. The project was initially built in 2009.
Newmark Cornish & Carey is handling leasing for the property.
