Boulder office portfolio sells for combined $146.7M

BOULDER — New York-based real estate investment and development firm Clarion Partners LLC has acquired a trio of central Boulder office buildings for $146.7 million.

The sales, which were recorded the last week of December, included 1050 Walnut St., 1881 Ninth St. and 1900 15th St.  The individual buildings sold at $72.3 million, $51.5 million and $27.9 million, respectively.

Private equity firm Blackstone Group entities purchased the properties from Swedish pension manager Alecta in 2016 for $92.6 million. The buildings were flipped in 2017 for $101.3 million to J.P. Morgan. The December sale represents a 44.8 percent increase from the 2017 sale, and 58.4 percent increase since the 2016 sale.

Exploring & expressing grief

Support groups and events, as well as creative therapies and professional counseling, are all ways in which Pathways supports individuals dealing with grief and loss.

The three Boulder buildings total roughly 221,000 square feet of office space, plus a pair of parking garages.

Clarion has been on a Boulder spending spree. The trio of commercial deals comes roughly a week after Clarion bought the 2121 Canyon apartment community in Boulder for just under $17.2 million.
