One Tower Court’s fifth floor is ready for build-out now that the city issued a permit May 6 for the Foley & Lardner law firm to build-out the space at a project cost of almost $4.13 million.
Auld & White Constructors LLC of Jacksonville is the contractor for the 21,461-square-foot project in the six-story structure at 1 Tower Court.
Jacksonville Jaguars President Mark Lamping announced March 25 that Foley & Lardner will lease the fifth floor of One Tower Court, the Jaguars’ new headquarters office building across East Bay Street from EverBank Stadium.
The Jaguars said the move is expected about year-end.
The law firm will relocate its 44 lawyers and 60 staff members Downtown from the 37-story 1 Independent Square tower at 1 Independent Drive.
Based on a leasing brochure, Foley & Lardner will rent 25,064 square feet of space.
Gensler is the architect. NV5 Inc. of Jacksonville provided plan review.
“Foley’s investment in this modern, thoughtfully designed space reflects our long-term commitment to downtown Jacksonville and the growing momentum we’re seeing across the region,” Jacksonville managing partner Danielle Whitley said previously in a statement.
“This new office offers enhanced facilities and amenities that support how our attorneys and business professionals work today, with spaces that support collaboration, innovation, and wellbeing,” she said.
Whitley said that as Jacksonville “continues to thrive a s an economic hub,” Foley & Lardner will “continue expanding alongside our clients and community, and this new space positions us to do exactly that.”
The permit plans say the build-out will include new partitions, ceilings, lighting, electrical distribution, mechanical systems, plumbing systems and fire protection systems.
The lease boosts One Tower Court to 83% occupancy, Lamping said.
One Tower Court houses the Jaguars’ headquarters on the second, third and fourth floors.
The ground floor has a 6,000-square-foot YMCA and will set up a 5,700-square-foot restaurant.
Jacksonville-based private investment firm Timucuan Asset Management will lease 7,000 square feet on the top floor.
One Tower Court is next to the Four Seasons Hotel and Residences Jacksonville. Jaguars owner Shad Khan’s Iguana Investments serves as the ownership and investment entity for that project, while development, design direction and execution are led by Shanna Collective.
Shipyards Office LLC, led by Khan’s Iguana Investments Florida LLC, owns the 137,000-square-foot One Tower Court office building.
Jacksonville-based real estate firm NAI Hallmark announced Sept. 30, 2025, that it is the exclusive management and leasing agent for the office building on behalf of Shipyards Office LLC.
NAI Hallmark’s brochure shows the ground floor including a fitness center and a restaurant, among other uses; the Jaguars headquarters on the second, third and fourth floors; 25,064 square feet of available space on the fifth floor that now will be used by Foley & Lardner; and 18,030 square feet available on the sixth.
