According to HallKeen Management , they have been chosen as management company for two commercial properties - the Merrimack Valley Regional Transit Authority and the Boston Center for the Arts.
The Merrimack Valley Regional Transit Authority (MVRTA) headquartered in Haverhill, has contracted HallKeen to manage a five building portfolio with properties located in Haverhill, Lawrence, and Amesbury. These properties include over 60,000 s/f of office and retail space, a bus maintenance garage, two parking garages with nearly 1,800 parking spaces, and a surface lot with approximately 285 parking spaces. The MVRTA serves the northeast corner of the state with over one million miles of city, suburban, interurban, and rural scheduled bus routes.

The Boston Center for the Arts (BCA) located in the city's South End, has hired HallKeen as the property manager for the 190,000 s/f performing and visual arts complex - including the historic Cyclorama rotunda. The BCA serves as affordable studio, work and exhibition space for working artists of all disciplines, and occupies the majority of a city block on nearly two acres located at 539 Tremont St. Tenants include Hamersley's Bistro, the Mills Gallery, the Beehive Restaurant, 50 working artists' studios, and several non-profits.
"The addition of these two management contracts really diversifies our growing portfolio. The MVRTA contract slingshots us into the world of 'transit' property management while the BCA contract allows us to operate this landmark property," said Chad Boulay, director of commercial management for HallKeen. "We are truly honored to have been selected as the property managers and have the opportunity to partner with great organizations like the Boston Center for the Arts and the Merrimack Valley Regional Transit Authority."
