Times' building occupancy up to 90%

With L3 Technologies’ planned shift of its Commercial Aviation Solutions division to roughly 60,000 square feet in 490 First Ave. South in St. Petersburg, the eight-story building that is also the Tampa Bay Times headquarters occupancy will rise to 90%.

The gain marks a stark turnaround for the 239,000-square-foot building as compared to 2016, when New Jersey-based Denholtz Associates and Tampa’s Convergent Capital Partners acquired it for $19 million.
