South University Signs Lease Extension at Flagship Location in West Palm Beach

West Palm Beach, Fla.

South University has been educating the public and shaping tomorrow’s leaders since the 19th century, and will continue to do so at their flagship location in West Palm Beach, Fla. South University recently signed a 10-year lease extension at 9801 and 9901 Belvedere Road. South University partnered with Rendina Real Estate Development to develop the 70,000 square foot campus in 2008. South University has maintained a presence in the West Palm Beach area for 30 years.

South University leases the entirety of both buildings, where they offer Associate, Bachelor, Master, and Doctoral Degrees in programs including Business Administration, Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Criminal Justice, Healthcare Administration, Healthcare Management, Nursing, Nursing RN to BSN, Nurse Practitioner, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy Assistant, Psychology and Public Health.

One of its core initiatives is addressing the continued surge in the demand for healthcare through their nursing program. South University’s decision to extend its lease at its West Palm Beach Campus is in support of its commitment to producing qualified professionals in the areas of Nurse Practitioner, Nursing, and Nursing RN.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, South University recently partnered with Mediaplanet in an effort to inspire more people to pursue a career in public health, which the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts job growth of 11 percent by 2026. South University offers a Master’s in Public Health degree program as well as a Bachelor of Science in Public Health degree program, both online and on-campus.

“The West Palm Beach location continues to be one our most popular campuses for individuals seeking higher education to further their careers in their chosen designations,” said John Papp, Vice President of Finance at South University. “We are excited for the future of our students, faculty, and staff; and we remain steadfast in our continued commitment to the advancement of the West Palm Beach community.”

South University offers more than 40 accredited programs, both on campus and online, with concentrations including health and behavior sciences, business, legal and IT, with degree levels ranging from associate to doctorate.

Rendina Real Estate Development owns both buildings and provides comprehensive property management services for the Campus.

Rendina Selected to Develop 140,000 SF Medical Office Building in Portland, Oregon

Portland, Ore.

The first new medical office building development project in downtown Portland in 50 years is coming soon to the rapidly growing West End. The West End Medical Center at 12th & Taylor is designed to serve as the exemplary model of healthcare delivery in an urban setting. The new 140,000-square-foot facility will provide seven floors of custom-designed physician space, 8,000 square feet of ground floor retail space, and dedicated on-site parking.

This exciting development is in the heart of the West End as a response to the demand for additional “best of class” healthcare providers needed to serve the growing residential population. The Portland Clinic, a leading healthcare provider that has set the standard for medical care in Portland for nearly 100 years, will serve as the anchor tenant of the new facility. To support The Portland Clinic’s commitment to its patients and the Portland community, a host of services will be offered at the new location, including Primary Care, Internal Medicine, Cardiology, Orthopedics, Diabetes Care, Dermatology, Gynecology, Neurology, Rheumatology, and Urology.

Rendina Healthcare Real Estate was selected as developer by The Portland Clinic through a competitive RFP process.

The location of this Class A medical building will offer additional healthcare professionals the opportunity to provide crucial health care services in one of the fastest growing neighborhoods in Portland. Located two blocks away from the new Ritz Carlton (currently under construction), the West End Medical Center at 12th & Taylor will put many of the best local attractions within walking distance, including some of Portland’s most famous restaurants – Multnomah Whiskey Library, Jake’s Famous Crawfish, Tasty n’ Alder, Bamboo Sushi, Bistro Agnes – as well as the Multnomah Athletic Club, the Timbers’ soccer stadium at Providence Park, and dozens of retail storefronts.

The official address of West End Medical Center at 12th & Taylor will be 804 SW 12th Avenue, and the expected completion date is Summer 2023.
