Unico Properties, a Seattle-based private equity real estate investment firm, has increased its Denver holdings with the purchase of two LoDo office buildings totaling 170,472 square feet from ASB Real Estate Investments for $85.5 million.<\/p>\n

ASB had acquired the assets\u20141755 Blake St. and 1515-1527 Wazee St.\u2014in 2013 for $69.8 million. Both buildings are located a short distance from Union Station, Denver\u2019s transport hub, and are in the center of the city\u2019s popular restaurant and entertainment district.<\/p>\n

JLL marketed the properties on behalf of ASB. The JLL Capital Markets Investment Sales and Advisory team was led by Senior Managing Director Mark Katz and Senior Director Peter Merrion.<\/p>\n

The sale was part of ASB\u2019s portfolio strategy to selectively reduce office exposure and increase investments in industrial and apartment assets coming out of the pandemic. In September, ASB and partner Lincoln Property Co. sold Two Financial Center, a 220,000-square-foot, 12-story Class A office building in Boston to Nan Fung Life Science Group for $120 million. The firm also sold 64 New York Ave., a 355,034-square-foot, five-story building in Washington, D.C<\/a>., for $201.8 million to Boyd Watterson Asset Management in April.<\/p>\n

Denver Details<\/strong><\/h2>\n

ASB continues to own Colorado Center, a 1 million-square-foot office complex located between downtown and the Denver Tech Center at 2000 South Colorado Blvd., in a joint venture with Lincoln Property Co.<\/p>\n

Also a multi-tenant property, the four-story building was converted to office use in 2001. The asset has 52,191 square feet, including 7,220 square feet of retail and 36 parking spaces, according to CommercialEdge.<\/p>\n
