Omega Engineering has relocated its Stamford headquarters to 800 Connecticut Ave. in Norwalk, a five-story, 412,000-square-foot office building that is home to such high-profile companies as travel deals giant Priceline and the athletic talent agency Octagon.
Omega, an industrial equipment supplier, inked the multiyear deal this week for 26,995 square feet of space in the property owned by CBRE Strategic Partners U.S. Value 7, a fund sponsored by CBRE Global Investors.
The CBRE Group team of David Block, Steven Greenbush and Joseph Weaver represented the building ownership in the lease negotiations. Steve Baker of Cushman & Wakefield brokered the deal for Omega Engineering.
“800 Connecticut Ave. is one of the very few office buildings in the market that caters to TAMI (technology, advertising, media and information) tenants and millennial employees, offering co-working and collaborative spaces as well as full Wi-Fi connectivity,” said Block. “Omega Engineering”™s commitment to relocate its corporate operations from Stamford speaks directly to the allure of the property and the entire Norwalk submarket to global companies.”
The CBRE fund acquired the property last fall and plans to launch a $7 million capital improvement project including a new conference and collaboration center accommodating over 100 people in a classroom setting, an upgraded café, outdoor green spaces, a new atrium lobby featuring a glass canopy and enhanced tenant amenities.
