The BB and T Building

111 Franklin Plaza

Roanoke, Virginia

This office building is Class A in today's commercial market. The reflective glass exterior, large floor plate, and access to the adjacent parking garage have kept the building extremely competitive. This is evidenced by continued expansions of Trigon/BlueCross-Blue Shield.

The 111 Franklin Plaza property was originally constructed as regional headquarters for IBM. Southwind, Ltd., of Columbia, South Carolina, developed the office building in a joint venture with New York Life, with IBM's regional headquarters as the original anchor tenant.


We are currently in partnership with Crown Properties in the leasing of this office building.

Property Notes

Over the past two years, the CBD neighborhood has been positively influenced by the growth of the Roanoke City Market and the opening of the Hotel Roanoke. The Roanoke City Market represents a four-block area centered around the farmer's market at the intersection of Campbell Avenue and Wall Street. This shopping and dining area has traditionally catered to downtown office workers at lunch. More recently, the market area has also developed into a nightspot. The Roanoke City Market is located two blocks directly north of 111 Franklin Plaza and is a desirable amenity for the occupants of this commercial real estate property.
