Girvin has a long history with the condominium, having sold it previously in 2014. “401 Harrison Ave. is in a highly-visible location at the intersection of East Berkeley St. The increased vehicular and pedestrian traffic, as a result of the development of Ink Block, will help ensure that the acquisition represents a solid long-term investment for the buyer”, stated Girvin.
