HFF and NAI Global brokered the transaction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>With its amenity-rich, densifying location and strong anchor tenant, Argon Plaza is a perfect addition to our growing office portfolio<\/em>,\u201d Grubb Properties Chief Investment Officer Todd Williams, said in a prepared statement. \u201c<em>We look forward to making Argon Plaza a leading property for both existing and new tenants<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Improvement Plans<\/h2>\n<p>The 1988-built, 10-story building awaits major renovations and the implementation of a new leasing program. The Boeing Co. occupies more than half of the property, having recently renewed its lease for a period of five years.<\/p>\n<p>Located at 12701 Fair Lakes Circle, within the Fair Lakes master-planned community, the asset offers easy access to major roads such as Interstate 66 and Route 286. Neighborhood amenities include accommodation options and more than 1 million square feet of retail, eateries and cafes within a half-mile radius.<\/p>\n<p>According to Yardi Matrix, the asset previously traded in 2006, when Shorenstein Properties acquired it from Peterson Cos. for no less than $84.6 million as part of a $370 million portfolio.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of Yardi Matrix<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Special servicer C-III Asset Management represented U.S. Bank in the disposition of Argon Plaza in Fairfax, Va.
