The Californer/10127444

LONG BEACH, Calif. - Californer -- San Diego-based Parallel Capital Partners Inc. has announced $80 million in lease renewals – spanning over 140,000 square feet – with the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) at Shoreline Square, a Class A office tower at 301 East Ocean Blvd., in Long Beach, Calif.

Owned and operated by Parallel Capital Partners, a commercial real estate investment and operating company, the 20-story Shoreline Square encompasses 410,114 square feet of premier office space.

According to Matt Root, CEO of Parallel Capital Partners, Shoreline Square is currently 87% percent leased, an impressive figure considering pandemic related challenges. "This is a highly desirable property ideally located near the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles – in a dynamic and diversified waterfront urban locale – and is also LEED-Gold certified, with a 91 Energy Star score, the equivalent of using 42% less energy than the national median average for similar building size, location and type," Root said. Adding to the building's appeal, he said, is the recent installation of a state-of-the-art needlepoint bipolar ionization air sterilization system designed to protect people from pathogens and eliminate pollutants in the air.
