Jones Lang LaSalle's (JLL) capital markets experts have closed the sale of One Faneuil Hall on behalf of Faneuil Hall Square LLC. The eight-story, 44,287 s/f retail/office building was purchased by a foreign investor for $40 million. "One Faneuil Hall is a true core, mixed-use asset in an irreplaceable location that offered great appeal to investors," said Scott Jamieson of JLL. "Boston is considered one of the strongest real estate markets in the country, and the unemployment rate is far below the national average. This purchase gives the new owners an unparalleled opportunity to tap into an extremely high barrier-to-entry market." One Faneuil Hall was designed by architect Graham Gund and completed in 1989. The freestanding granite, travertine and marble building won the 1990 Grand Award from the National Association of Office Parks (NAIOP) for project excellence. It is located in the city's downtown Financial District, adjacent to 60 State St. and Faneuil Hall Marketplace. The property is fully leased to three tenants including Abercrombie & Fitch, EC Boston Language Center and the Cue Ball Group, LLC. The landmark property is 100% leased, including two major tenants who occupy 91% of the property through 2023.
