The Berry Firm To Move D/FW Headquarters To Adolphus Tower In Downtown Dallas

DALLAS, TX - November 17, 2009 --  Adolphus Tower, located in the central business district of downtown Dallas will become the new Dallas-Fort Worth headquarters for The Berry Firm P.L.L.C.

The Berry Firm has leased the entire 23rd floor as well as a portion of the 22nd floor, a total of 9,472 square feet at Adolphus Tower, 1412 Main Street. Adolphus Tower is located next door to The Adolphus Hotel and offers an array of unique amenities at a one of the most competitive rates in downtown Dallas. “Our client liked the building and we were able to hand him a package of terms that were aggressive and satisfied not only his immediate needs, but also the firms needs well into the future,” said Stephen LaMure of Dominus Commercial on Berry’s decision to move to Adolphus Tower. Prior to signing the lease with Adolphus Tower, LaMure conducted a broad search of buildings in the CBD, Deep Ellum and Uptown areas before narrowing in on Adolphus Tower. “The Berry Firm really liked the building and its immediate amenities; it’s connection to The Adolphus Hotel and interior finish out offered something other buildings in the area could not,” stated LaMure. Berry currently operates at Market-Ross Place on Market Street. Tentatively plans are in motion to open their office at Adolphus Tower in January of 2010.

Mark Boynton, Leasing Agent for Adolphus Tower negotiated the transaction with Dominus’ Stephen LaMure for the better part of this year. “They were terrific to work with,” said LaMure of the Adolphus Tower leasing team. ”This was a difficult and complex transaction. Mark was efficient with every request and the building manager was extremely helpful, even taking the time to tour other buildings for finish out techniques.” Mark Boynton and building manager Leslie Coke, are currently working on final design plans for the space. The 23rd floor and a portion of the 22nd floor will be converted into a high-end contemporary office space with exposed ceilings and stained concrete floors. Though no specific time-frame has been set, The Berry Firm could possibly occupy the remaining of the 22nd floor and a portion of the 21st floor in the next several years.
