CBRE\/New England executed the deal on behalf of the owner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCoupled with the city of Marlborough\u2019s packed amenity base, and growing with the APEX Center coming online in the near future, 200 Forest, while technically a renovation, is for all intents and purpose a brand new state-of-the-art project, which was appealing to Whole Foods,\u201d Robert Walles, CBRE\u2019s senior vice president &amp; partner for New England, told <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em>. \u201cIt is a true Work, Live, Play, Stay environment with Avalon\u2019s 350 unit high-end residential development, the 165-room Hilton Garden and Atlantic\u2019s 750,000 square feet of first class lab and office space.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whole Foods will service the New England region from the new location, which will provide a more convenient and centrally located headquarters for its employees and stores.<\/p>\n<p>There are two other major tenants in the office building, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/ge-healthcare-life-sciences-debuts-suburban-boston-hq\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GE Healthcare<\/a> and Quest Diagnostics laboratory space. Office park amenities include a brand new hotel with conferencing facility and restaurant, as well as a strong residential community known as Avalon at Marlborough. Retail amenities, including a daycare center, are scheduled to open in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis project is very unique to the western Route 495 suburbs and the city government is doing all the right things to make Marlborough business-user friendly, from permitting to issuance of certificates of occupancy,\u201d Walles said. \u201cThere is no town or city as accommodating at Marlborough. Also, the marketplace provided tremendous access to a skilled and educated work force and Massachusetts\u2019 low unemployment rate, this is a significant draw.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whole Foods is planning to make a significant investment in the project.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAtlantic Management looks forward to working with Whole Foods to create a world-class environment for their new corporate office location, with over $300 million invested into campus upgrades including new office, lab, residential, hotel and retail development,\u201d Joe Zink, Atlantic Management\u2019s president &amp; CEO, said in a prepared release. \u201cMarlborough Hills is being transformed into one of the most desirable suburban office parks in Greater Boston. We are confident that Whole Foods will thrive in this environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marlborough Hills is one of the area\u2019s most sought-after redevelopment sites due to strong, well-capitalized ownership that has reinvested over $42 million into the project since purchasing the site.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of Yardi Matrix<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The retailer has signed a 50,000-square-foot lease in Marlborough and will make a significant investment in the property. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":451,"featured_media":1004164489,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1490,21784,21782,21808,21742,10,21747],"tags":[33524,32789,33525,33526,33004],"class_list":["post-1004164485","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-boston","category-brokerage","category-development","category-featured","category-latest","category-northeast","category-office","tag-atlantic-management-corporation","tag-cbre","tag-ge-healthcare","tag-quest-diagnostics-inc","tag-whole-foods-market"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
