Woodrise Gardens is a 36-unit brick and concrete apartment building located at 25 Ekman St. The property was sold by Woodrise Realty Trust to 25 Ekman Street, LLC for $3.45 million. The building was built in 1973 and consisted of 17 two-bedroom units and 19 one-bedroom units. 

Westland Meadows is a 48-unit apartment building located at 5 Town Beach Rd. in Leicester. The property was sold by Westland Meadows Realty Trust to 5 Town Beach Road, LLC for $3.7 million. The building was built in 1970 and consisted of 32 two-bedroom and 16 one-bedroom apartments.

“This was the first time in over 20 years that either of these buildings have traded, the former owners did a great job with keeping up with buildings and the sale price for each transaction reflects that” said Slyman. “These sale shows the strength of the Worcester multi-family market which is at historic highs due largely in part to the recent downtown developments and overall revitalization of the city.”
