Boston, MA The CBRE/New England multifamily capital markets team completed the sale of West Square, a 255-unit luxury urban infill apartment community, for an undisclosed price.

CBRE/NE exclusively represented the seller, a joint venture between Lincoln Property Company and an institutional partner, and procured the buyer, 5514 D Street 320 Boston LLC, an affiliate of Akelius US LLC.

Lincoln Property Company will be retained as the property management company.

CBRE/NE multifamily experts Simon Butler, vice chairman and partner, and Biria St. John, vice chairman and partner, exclusively represented the seller.

“We are pleased to have facilitated the sale of West Square on behalf of our client, which marked the conclusion to a successful development for them. At the same time, the investment offers Akelius a high quality asset with great long-term upside potential as the neighborhood continues to mature,” said Butler.
