Garrick Hamilton, Koman’s executive vice president and general counsel, said the developer couldn’t reveal the name of the tenant while the business seeks approvals to finalize the deal. But he said more details would be forthcoming in a public hearing set for Dec. 14 in front of the TIF Commission.

Koman is asking for $8.7 million in TIF assistance for the project, named Cupples X. Construction could start by late spring 2017 and the building is slated to open in late 2018.

“That is an extremely aggressive schedule for a building of this type,” Hamilton said.

The planned building’s proximity to the Stadium MetroLink station and the connections that provides to technology centers such as Cortex was an important consideration for the tenant, Hamilton said. Koman’s TIF application to the city describes the building as “millennial-focused” with collaborative working space.
