The Carlyle Development Group\u00a0paid $4 million for the building in late 2004. Building amenities include two full-service restaurants, a deli, a cigar and convenience store, a barber shop, a shoeshine stand, a coffee shop\u00a0and dental offices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the Cuyahoga County Fiscal Office says it is worth $2.7 million, it attracted a high bid of almost $7.7 million at the auction running from Nov. 13 to \u00a015.

Companies are now vacating space in the suburbs and establishing a presence in the core. According to Marcus &amp; Millichap, in the last 12 months transaction velocity accelerated by 30 percent as local buyers purchased Class B and C\u00a0 assets\u00a0 at attractive prices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The 16-story Leader Building is situated at the intersection of East Sixth Street and Superior Avenue, in the heart of Cleveland\u2019s CBD. It is close to both the new casino and the future convention center, in a location that makes it very desirable for both companies looking to move downtown or developers seeking to turn it into apartments. This might explain why the owner is in no hurry to sell.<\/p>\n<h6>Photo credts: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theleaderbuilding.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.theleaderbuilding.com\/<\/a><\/h6>\n<h6>Charts courtesy of Marcus&amp;Millichap<\/h6>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Adrian Maties, Associate Editor<br \/>\nThe Leader Building, a Class B office building in downtown Cleveland, hit the auction block on Nov. 13.
