Ardise, O’Leary, McNamara, and Gaudet of Cushman & Wakefield arrange 34,289 s/f lease

Newton, MA Cushman & Wakefield has arranged a 34,289 s/f lease renewal for Informa TechTarget at 275 Grove St. The global information services and technology research company will continue its long-term occupancy at the property following Informa and TechTarget’s strategic combination in December 2024. 

Cushman & Wakefield’s Adam Ardise, Michael O’Leary, Kevin McNamara, and Ross Gaudet represented the tenant. Building ownership, Greatland & Barings, was represented by Ron Friedman and Perry Beal of CBRE.

“After a major period of transformation for the organization, this renewal represents a strategic realignment of Informa TechTarget’s workspace to support how their teams operate today, and how they plan to grow and operate in the future,” said Ardise, vice chair with Cushman & Wakefield. “By leveraging a highly efficient layout in a best-in-class building, the company is positioned for long-term stability and continued momentum in Greater Boston.”

“This investment reflects our continued commitment to creating an environment where our people can do their best work,” said an Informa Tech Target representative. “The amenities, accessibility, and quality of space at 275 Grove align perfectly with the needs of our teams today – and where we’re headed in the future.”

Located in the N2 Innovation District, 275 Grove St. is a modernized office environment combining high-end design with a strong suburban location. The property features renovated lobbies and common areas, flexible floorplates, natural light, on-site parking, and a suite of campus-style amenities, including fitness facilities, collaborative spaces, outdoor seating, and walkable access to retail and dining options. Occupants also benefit from access to Rte. 128/I-95 and proximity to the MBTA Commuter Rail.

“Informa TechTarget has been a cornerstone occupant at 275 Grove St. for more than 15 years, and we’re thrilled to continue that relationship,” said Phil Dorman, managing principal at Greatland Realty Partners. “Their renewed commitment underscores the enduring strength of the 128 market and validates our long-term investment in delivering high-quality, amenitized workspace that supports today’s evolving workforce.”
