Newmark announces the sale of 855 Boylston Street, a mid-rise office/retail asset located in the Back Bay neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. Newmark Co-Head of U.S. Capital Markets Robert Griffin, Executive Vice Chairman Edward Maher, Vice Chairman Matthew Pullen and Senior Managing Director Samantha Hallowell of the firm’s Boston Capital Markets Group represented the seller, a global investment manager, and procured the offshore buyer, 855 Boylston Inc. The transaction is the largest office sale completed in Boston’s Back Bay in more than three years*.
