Charter Realty & Development arranges 2,350 s/f lease
Charter Realty & Development has arranged a 2,350 s/f lease for Fleisher's Craft Butcher at 160 East Putnam Rd. Peter Levine of Charter Realty & Development represented Fleisher's in direct dealings with the landlord. Fleisher's will be occupying the former Radio Shack and joining existing tenants including the Greenwich Cheese Company and Fjord Fish Market.
Fleisher's is an old-fashioned butcher shop with modern-day ideals. They're dedicated to exclusively carrying pasture-raised meat from small, local farms that share their values of quality and sustainability. Fleisher's premium beef, pork, lamb and poultry products come from animals that live stress-free lives and are never given antibiotics, hormones, steroids or animal by-products. The reasoning is part ethics, part health and part food safety, but it also translates into better tasting meat, milk, and eggs.
Beverly, MA Jay Goldberg, president and owner of Spire Investments has completed the purchase of four multifamily buildings. The 33-unit purchase amounted to a sale price of $9.2 million or $278,788 per unit. The properties are all located in downtown and consist of one- and two-bedroom units.
Now what? As the year comes to a close, the state of retail is always in the news. The answers vary greatly depending on who in the various related industries you ask, each offering a unique lens on the challenges and opportunities ahead.
This may seem self-serving, and I’ll be the first to admit it. But unlike some of the artificial intelligence tools now reshaping our industry, I am fully aware of my own bias. So, hear me out. The rise of AI in commercial real estate is not a distant threat or a speculative headline.
