"Colliers and Arbella worked closely together over the past eighteen (18) months in establishing this real estate strategic plan. Arbella achieved optimal results by securing a long-term commitment at favorable market rents." "Arbella is extremely pleased to have renewed its lease at 1100 Crown Colony, affirming our long-term commitment to Quincy," said Janet Corcoran, executive vice president and COO of Arbella. "Crown Colony has proven to be an excellent and convenient location for our home office operations especially since so many of our employees live nearby. We look forward to thriving in this location for many years to come."
