However, that trend did not continue, as the state saw a 28 percent increase in the number of new infections over the past two weeks, according to <em>The New York Times<\/em>. Meanwhile, several landmark deals closed in Raleigh-Durham in September, with investors poured capital into properties across a wide spectrum of asset classes. On the development side, companies moved ahead on large-scale projects that will significantly increase the market\u2019s office supply. Read our September selection of Raleigh-Durham must-knows:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. DEVELOPMENT \u2013 Research Triangle Foundation kicks off 2 million-square-foot project.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The company held a virtual ground breaking ceremony for Hub RTP, a 43-acre campus with an estimated cost of $1.5 billion. The development is set to include office, hotel and retail space, as well as 800 apartments. Faulconer Construction serves as the general contractor for the Duda|Paine Architects-designed project. JLL will oversee leasing efforts for the office component, while Middle-America Apartment Communities will manage the residential side.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. DEAL \u2013 Mapletree Investments pays $189 million for three office assets.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Starwood Capital Group sold a three-property portfolio encompassing 519,812 square feet in Morrisville, N.C. The deal included two buildings in Lenovo\u2019s U.S. headquarters campus at 1009 at 1025 Think Place, and another property at 5221 Paramount Parkway, according to Yardi Matrix. Completed in 2006 and 2008, the assets are fully leased to Lenovo, Credit Suisse and UNC Medical Center.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. SUSTAINABILITY \u2013 Duke University signs up for 101 MW of solar power.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The institution signed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/duke-university-signs-up-for-101-mw-of-solar-with-duke-energy\/\">renewable power agreement<\/a> under Duke Energy\u2019s Green Source Advantage program. The move is part of the university\u2019s goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2024. Under this initiative, the academic institution plans to reduce on-campus emissions by 84 percent and cut down on remaining emissions by investing in carbon offsets. The agreement is expected to reduce the university\u2019s carbon emissions by nearly 70 percent in the next two years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. DEAL \u2013 Realty Income Corp. buys Wegmans-anchored asset for $35 million.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>LeylandAlliance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/raleigh-area-wegmans-property-sells-for-35m\/\">sold the 103,000-square-foot property<\/a> in Cary, N.C. The store is part of the Twin Lakes Center, a 34-acre mixed-use campus developed by the seller. The center also encompasses an additional 25,000 square feet of retail, as well as medical office space, along with nearly 400 residential units under construction. Located at 3710 Davis Drive, the building was recently completed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. DEAL \u2013 Mountain Real Estate Capital sells office park.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Boyd Watterson Asset Management paid $41.6 million for the 206,829-square-foot&nbsp;Somerset Park, a four-building campus at 4401 Bland Road in Raleigh, Yardi Matrix data shows.
