An Indianapolis engineering and architecture consulting firm is moving its Tampa office into a bigger space and has plans to triple its current workforce in the city.
American Structurepoint has signed a lease for a 9,485-square-foot space at the 13-story Tampa Commons office building at 1 N. Dale Mabry Highway. The company is building out the space and plans to move in later this year.
Its local 4,760-square-foot office is now in Cypress Center, about 2.5 miles away.
The company is currently hiring and has plans to add 35 new employees, more than tripling its local workforce, says Colliers, which announced the lease and represented the building’s owner, Bridge Investment Group.
According to the statement, the need for a bigger office and the increased workforce is driven by “the demand for project oversight and transportation design projects for local municipalities and the Florida Department of Transportation.”
The move will put American Structurepoint at, arguably, Tampa’s most traveled and premier intersections — Dale Mabry Highway and Kennedy Boulevard — and less than a mile south of Midtown Tampa, the 23-acre, 1.8 million-square-foot, $1 billion development on Dale Mabry.
In the statement announcing the new space, Ben Braun, American Structurepoint's chief people officer, says the space was attractive because of its proximity to the Midtown development. The company, he says “needed a new flagship office to grow our workforce and attract local talent.”
Indianapolis-based American Structurepoint has 17 offices in seven states. In addition to Tampa, it has an office in Maitland, just outside of Orlando.
According to the statement, it specializes in transportation, working on projects ranging from local intersection improvements to interstate and freeway expansion projects.
