Boston, MA Freudenheim Partners has facilitated a 6,185 s/f sublease for an expanding Houston-based company, Ara Partners, at 222 Berkley St. The private equity firm, which specializes in industrial decarbonization, will sublease 6,185 s/f in the Back Bay. Ellie Cullinan and Chris Rogers represented the tenant, Ara Partners, in the transaction.

“With a focus towards Boston’s Back Bay, Houston headquartered Ara Partners was searching for a significant presence for their expanding Boston office,” said Chris Rogers, executive vice president of Freudenheim Partners. “Our mission was to help them quickly secure a fully furnished sublease space in a ‘signature’ building, at a cost-effective price. With demand strong for a narrowing supply in Back Bay, due diligence and efficiency were put to the test, successfully.”
