"Fountainhead Office Plaza is one of the premier office properties in Tempe and we are excited to add it to our portfolio. We look forward to enhancing its modern and welcoming environment by further improving existing amenities and completing a number of thoughtful upgrades throughout."

With newer office inventory and excellent access to a diverse and talented labor pool, the city continues to attract companies from outside the region looking to establish a presence in the Phoenix metro.
