Foot Locker leases Class A property for Florida HQ
Foot Locker Inc. will soon have a new home address.
Real estate investment firm The Feil Organization said that Foot Locker has signed a 110,998-sq.-ft., long-term office lease to relocate its global headquarters to 570 Carillon Parkway, a Class A office property in the heart of St. Petersburg, Fla. The footwear and apparel retailer announced its plans to relocate its headquarters from New York City to Florida in August 2024.
Foot Locker said the move represents its "commitment to community and connectivity” as it continues to execute its "Lace Up Plan" to boost growth.
“As we accelerate our Lace Up Plan, we believe the metropolitan Tampa Bay area provides the perfect environment to align our internal teams, attract top talent, and connect with the local community," said Frank Bracken, who was recently named president of Foot Locker. "With many of our team members already calling this city home, we’re excited to deepen our roots, foster connectivity, and create greater alignment and inspiration for our team and brand partners to bring sneaker culture to life.”

Carillion Business Park features 250,000 rentable sq. ft. across five stories, and offers on-site amenities, including a café, fitness center, 24/7 building access and more.
Foot Locker was represented by Lee Winter and Caleb Lewis of JLL. The Feil Organization was represented in-house by Andrew Wiener, and Barry Hanerfeld and Molly Molloy Catlett of CBRE.
“Welcoming Foot Locker, Inc. to St. Petersburg underscores 570 Carillon’s preeminent position as a premier office space where high-profile organizations can grow and thrive,” said Andrew Wiener, head of commercial office leasing at The Feil Organization. “We continue to see prominent companies prioritizing Southwest Florida as an opportunity for both headquarters and satellite locations. Leading companies recognize that the region offers employees a high quality of life, Class A work spaces and abundant amenities that both attract and retain valuable talent.”
