As would be expected, the store is attached to the mall, but Greyhawke's president Robert J. Rosen sees that as a plus in marketing to office tenants."I don't believe there's any office space you can get with access to shops, restaurants and rapid transit for $12 per sf," he tells GlobeSt.com.

Rosen says he's also not opposed to splitting the uses or scraping the site."As of now, the building's in good shape," he says."We'd consider tearing it down for the right tenant and the right price."But, he adds, today's construction costs make it more of a candidate for retooling than scraping.

Rosen says he's been in discussions with the mall owners about the likelihood of a makeover on their space, but it doesn't appear too likely at this stage.The mall is believed to be the only joint venture holding of Chicago-based General Growth Properties Inc. and Indianapolis-based Simon Property Group Inc.General Growth inherited the partnership stake in 2005 when it bought the Columbia, MD-based Rouse Co.

Rosen says "we believe the owners of the mall have to put a lot of money into the mall" if they want to compete against 21st century retail projects like the Mueller Airport redevelopment and the Domain.The owner lost Penney's to a freestanding store in Tech Ridge, which is eight miles to the north.It's the level of competition that has Rosen and his broker, Tom Rohde of Rohde Ottmers Siegel in San Antonio, on the campaign trail for an office backfill.

Rosen says there have been talks with some retailers, but they're primarily chasing discounted rates.He's holding firm to his $12 per sf price."Seventeen acres this close to Downtown Austin, to me, is very valuable," he stresses.

Until last year, Greyhawke only had the leasehold rights in a partnership, but bought it lock, stock and barrel with its eyes on the value-add.Office isn't better than retail, Rosen says, but it's a good alternative--particularly with Austin strapped on office space and average rents trekking north of $20 per sf.
