Boston, MA Cushman & Wakefield has arranged the sale of Yard 5, a three-building industrial portfolio totaling 196,000 s/f located on Industrial Dr. The sale price was $107.5 million.

Cushman & Wakefield’s Dave Pergola, Brian Doherty and Pete Rogers, with help from local leasing specialists Rob Byrne and Jim Murphy, represented the seller, First Highland Management & Development, in the transaction. The property was acquired by Intercontinental Real Estate Corp.

“Yard 5 features best-in-class new construction that allows for a myriad of uses including warehouse, flex and R&D,” said Doherty. “The transit-oriented portfolio is well-positioned to capture rental growth upside and is currently 100% leased to a diverse and strong credit rent roll.”
