Strategic Property Partners recently announced a new tenant at Thousand & One Water Street. Polar Capital, an investment firm founded in 2001, signed a four-year, four-month lease in the building, which opened in 2021, according to a statement. 

“We are very pleased to have opened our new office in Tampa at Thousand & One,” says Dan Boston, head of the Polar Capital global small company team, in a statement. “This provides our global small company investment team with a great home from which to build our strategy as well as help Polar Capital’s growth in the United States. The office has created an ideal environment to foster collaboration across the expanding team.” 

The goal for the firm’s new office is to focus on its U.S. growth strategy, specifically expanding its footprint in the region. Thousand & One noted in a statement that its ‘wellness focused designed’ work environment will be able to enhance client relationships through various amenities that include a rooftop terrace, a fitness center and a town hall meeting space.
