Merrimac, MA The Mega Group completed the sale of 51 East Main St., a 87,792 s/f industrial manufacturing building situated on 22.37 acres. The sale price was $7.3 million or $83.15 per s/f and an additional undisclosed multi-million dollar sale of the existing business added to the purchase price.

Brian DApice of the Mega Group represented the buyers, NSD 2 Real Estate LLC. Jason Clark of Mega Group represented the sellers, 51 East Main Street LLC in the off-market transaction. DApice said the buyers will continue to operate the existing business on-site and will utilize over 10,000 s/f of unused space for another entity the group operates. Future plans for the 22-acre parcel includes additional industrial style space to be built and perhaps other opportunities in the rear of the parcel where Federal St. divides the land area.
