Developers and dignitaries gathered in the lobby of the Circa Building at 1615 Platte St. on Thursday to celebrate the opening of the 96,000-square-foot commercial space.

It derives just shy of 30 percent of its power from a rooftop solar array provided by another subsidiary, Unico Solar Investors.

Those features helped Circa attract its marquee and so far only operational tenant: the Americas headquarters for cloud accounting software company..

The move by the Miami Marlins affiliate, pending approval of Minor League Baseball, is expected to be a formality.

Work on the long-stalled Mission Gateway project has started, but developer Tom Valenti of Cameron Group LLC wants to delay when a community improvement district will start collecting sales tax.
