According to BPG Properties, Ltd., Men's Designer Fashion Outlet has signed a long-term lease for 4,571 s/f of retail space on the ground floor of 60 Temple Place, a six-story, 51,940 s/f office building located on Washington St., the main commercial artery in the Downtown Crossing submarket of Boston. The landlord was represented in the lease negotiations by Emily Ou of Cushman Wakefield's Boston office. "We are pleased that Men's Designer Fashion Outlet chose to locate at 60 Temple Place," said Michael Rota, asset manager of BPG who oversees the asset management of the property. "This transaction fills the balance of the ground level retail space at the building and brings the property's overall occupancy to 98%." Men's Designer Fashion Outlet opened its flagship store in Levittown, N.Y. in 2001. The company provides a unique shopping environment where consumers can find recognized labels at outlet prices while offering a level of service that one would expect in a high end apparel store. It currently has locations in Levittown and Westbury, N.Y. and Cambridge, Mass. 60 Temple Place offers a combination of both office and retail space at the intersection of Washington St. and Temple Place in Downtown Crossing. The building is in close proximity to Boston's Financial District, the State House, Boston Public Gardens, numerous shops, restaurants, parking, hotels, entertainment and new residential developments. Access to all major MBTA lines is within a block.
