Combined Properties, Inc. has renewed 43,810 s/f at 191-201 Williams St. Renewing clients include Community Action Programs Inter-City Inc. (CAPIC), Snipped Fresh Produce, and State Garden. "This property's amenities, competitive pricing, and proximity to the airport, Cambridge, and downtown Boston are key factors for these clients," said Combined Properties's Greg Regazzini, vice president and director of leasing. "Combined Properties is pleased that the facility continues to support these local companies' successes." 201 Williams St. is part of a 250,000 s/f first-class industrial center owned and managed by Combined Properties. Located adjacent to the Tobin Bridge, the building offers access to Boston/Rte. 1 and is five minutes to Logan International Airport. The industrial complex has additional warehouse spaces available, some with generous refrigerated areas, which is a valuable asset in this food-centric area. CAPIC's Child Development Center provides families with high quality, affordable day care services. The center's philosophy is to provide a program that meets the fundamental growth and developmental needs of children who are outside of their homes for a large part of the day. The center has been at this location for 10 years. Fresh Snipped Produce is committed to delivering high quality snipped beans, onions, peeled squash, and a wide variety of other fresh produce. The family-run produce company works closely with businesses and individuals who need help with the preparation of produce in their busy kitchens. Snipped Fresh has been at this location since 2008. State Garden, established in 1938, prides itself on being one of the largest independent regional processors of tender leaf items and celery hearts in the country. The company's commitment to the highest standards for freshness, quality, and food safety has been its mainstay for 75 years.
