Marlene Aron sold the complex to Stonegate 92 Blandin Ave. 2015 LLC in October 2015, said, “This location and the properties mix of contiguous units that can easily be sized to meet the tenant’s needs,  has attracted a diverse mix of tenants.  We have a world class ballet school, a construction office for a new apartment  building nearby that is building 200 residential units, a high-end flooring company, a local retailer storing its furniture inventory, a Shark Tank winner producing a product that is a ‘green spray on product’  and protects fabrics, two auto parts distributors, a company that builds convention exhibits and others.
