Located at 20400 and 20450 Stevens Creek Blvd., Cupertino City Center offers a total of 354,770 square feet of office space. Built in the 1980’s, the two eight-story buildings continue to be the tallest in the Cupertino market, with a tenant roster that includes Seagate Technology, Apple and Morgan Stanley. The office buildings were originally part of the Cupertino City Center mixed-use development that consists of five office buildings, a hotel and three residential projects.

According to Andrew Slaton, “these buildings have been well occupied since they were built.” This historic aspect allowed Allianz to provide competitive terms for the refinancing process, Slaton also pointed out.
