A Phoenix office tower, located at the prime intersection of 24th Street and Camelback Road, has sold for $100 million. It's the priciest Arizona office sale so far in 2018.
The mid-rise, named 24th and Camelback, diagonal from the upscale Biltmore Fashion Park, was purchased by New York Life Real Estate Investors.
The 302,209-square-foot building has 11 stories and was developed in 2000. Houston-based Hines sold the tower, which it bought for $81 million in 2012.
Hines Managing Director Chris Anderson said the sale shows "modern buildings in desirable locations will outperform the market and are attractive to both tenants and investors."

The tower is 94 percent leased by tenants, including law firm Greenberg Traurig, AAA and Cisco Systems. The restaurant Scramble — a Breakfast & Lunch Joint is on the bottom floor of the building.
"This sale is a testament to the strength of the Phoenix market (for investors)," said Barry Gabel, a commercial real estate broker with CBRE.
He negotiated the deal for Hines with Will Mast and Chris Marchildon of CBRE and Valley real estate office expert Jim Fijan.
