CB Richard Ellis’ New York Tri-State Region Institutional Group Brokers The Sale of One Atlantic Street to Seaboard Properties
Jeffrey Dunne, Steven Bardsley and Christopher Leonard of CB Richard Ellis’ New York Tri-State Region Institutional Group represented One Atlantic Street Associates, L.P. and Richmond Avenue Associates, LLC, entities controlled by Ivy Realty, in the sale of One Atlantic Street in Stamford, Connecticut. The team was also responsible for procuring the buyer, an affiliate of Seaboard Properties.
One Atlantic Street is a landmark eight-story, 81,491 SF office/retail property situated at the “Main and Main” corner in Stamford. The striking red-brick/white marble building, listed in the U.S. Historic register, was for many years the tallest building in Stamford. With its classic interior, high visibility and prime central CBD location at the corner of Atlantic and Broad Streets, the Property enjoys a broad and diverse tenant appeal with a mix of retail banking and office tenants. The strategically located property is adjacent to much of the City’s newest developments, including the new Marriott Courtyard and Target/Citibank retail center, and across the street from the City’s long-time office/public centers, including the Ferguson Library, Landmark Square and Stamford Town Center.
Jeff Dunne had the following comments on the sale: “One Atlantic Street is one of Stamford’s most historic and best-located assets. Seaboard stands to fare well from the Property’s flexible floorplates, stable retail income and diversified office income that is poised to benefit from the rent spikes currently being experienced in Stamford.”
