The Seyon Group (“Seyon”), in partnership with Wheelock Street Capital (“Wheelock”), announced it has acquired 10 Dan Road and 20 Dan Road – located within the Canton Commerce Center, one of Route 128 South’s most dominant industrial parks. The park benefits from the adjacent Route 138 commercial corridor, which provides tenants with a plethora of amenities including retail, restaurant and day care facilities. The portfolio is directly accessible from Interstate 93, providing access to downtown Boston, and is just one exit from 93’s key intersection with Interstate 95, providing unmatched access to labor throughout Greater Boston. The Seyon and Wheelock partnership now own and operate a 3 million square-foot portfolio of industrial real estate across 25 assets, primarily in the Greater Boston metro.
Built in 2001, the Dan Road assets are currently 100% leased to four tenants with a weighted average lease term of more than six years. “We are thrilled with the acquisition, recent long-term commitments by credit quality tenants further validates the Class A nature of the portfolio and the market-leading specifications that support a variety of tenant needs including warehouse, flex/R&D, office and life science uses,” said The Seyon Group Managing Partner Bryan Blake.
10 and 20 Dan Road sit on 12.60 and 12.30 acres, respectively. Each property offers 22’ ceiling heights, 8 loading docks, 40 x 40 column spacing, and a combined 735 parking spaces. The off-market acquisition was an opportunity to add two high-quality industrial assets only five miles from Shawmut Park, where the partnership currently owns eight light industrial assets totaling 455,000 SF.
CBRE’s Boston Capital Markets team represented the seller; CBRE’s Boston Capital Markets team includes Scott Dragos, Doug Jacoby, Chris Skeffington, Roy Sandeman, Anthony Hayes, Timothy Mulhall, and Daniel Hines.
