Piedmont Office Realty Trust rebrands as Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust has rebranded to Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc. to reflect its focus on Piedmont PLACEs, which elevate the workday and provide a higher standard of service for clients. The new brand identity aims to transform traditional office buildings into welcoming workspaces that support company cultures and foster a sense of community.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc., a prominent player in the office real estate sector, has announced a rebranding effort to better align with its strategic vision. The company, now known as Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc., has introduced a new brand identity focused on Piedmont PLACEs, which aim to elevate the workday experience and provide a higher standard of service for clients.

The rebranding initiative is part of the company's broader strategy to transform traditional office buildings into welcoming workspaces that support company cultures and foster a sense of community. This shift in focus is intended to differentiate Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc. from its competitors and attract a broader range of tenants.

The rebranding announcement comes on the heels of significant developments in the company's portfolio. In June 2025, Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc. acquired the stalled redevelopment project of Buckhead's Piedmont Center, a 46-acre campus spanning 2.2 million square feet along Piedmont Road. The acquisition was completed by CP Group, a Sunbelt office owner-operator titan [1].

The acquisition of Piedmont Center marks a significant milestone for Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc., as it expands its footprint in Atlanta and positions itself for further growth. The company plans to undertake a comprehensive remake of the campus, incorporating thoughtfully curated food and beverage concepts, reimagined lobbies and conference centers, expanded fitness facilities, and revitalized outdoor and common areas. Additionally, high-end spec suites will be developed to meet the demand for flexibility and speed among today's tenants [1].

Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc. operates through various geographical segments, including Atlanta, Dallas, Orlando, Northern Virginia/Washington, D.C., Minneapolis, New York, and Boston. The company's headquarters are based in Atlanta, GA [2].
