Karyn McFarland, senior vice president, and Matthew Twombly, associate, both of Grubb & Ellis' office group, facilitated the transaction on behalf of DiGiorgio Associates.
"With its strong ownership, high image and convenient location near commuter rail and MBTA stations, DAI's current offices were the best option for both employees and clients," said McFarland.
