Cox Enterprises Inc. has signed a lease for 94,800 square feet at Ackerman & Co.’s 9000 Central Park in the Perimeter area.

Cox will use the 206,000-square-foot class A tower as future expansion space for its corporate offices adjacent to its headquarters at 6205 Peachtree-Dunwoody Road.

The deal comes on the heels of online classified powerhouse AutoTrader.com Inc., a Cox subsidiary, confirming to Atlanta Business Chronicle Oct. 8 that it plans to consolidate several offices and move to 3003 Perimeter Summit. And The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, also owned by Cox, announced in August that it’s moving its headquarters to the nearby 223 Perimeter Center Parkway building.

Ackerman purchased 9000 Central Park two years ago. Equity Office Properties sold its entire real estate holdings in Atlanta to Rubenstein, which then flipped 9000 Central Park to Ackerman.

John Shlesinger, chairman of CB Richard Ellis Inc. in Atlanta, brokered the deal for Cox. Frank Farrell, senior vice president of Ackerman, and Gwen Wegman, senior vice president with Ackerman, represented the landlord.
