Building at 87 Marginal Way is fully-leased and occupied by Wild Oats Natural Foods.
Morristown, NJ (PRWEB) September 27, 2006 -- The Hampshire Companies, a full service, private real estate investment fund manager with equity in assets valued at over $1.5 billion, announced today the acquisition of a single story, 32,000 square foot retail property located at 87 Marginal Way in Portland, Maine. The acquisition was made on behalf of Hampshire Partners Fund VI, Hampshire’s $235 million institutional investment fund.
The 87 Marginal Way property is fully-leased to Wild Oats Markets, Inc., which operates natural foods supermarkets throughout the United States and Canada.

The 87 Marginal Way building was purchased from Cheeky Monkey, LLC. Daniel Greenstein and Gregory W. Boulos, both Partners of CB Richard Ellis/The Boulos Company in Portland, ME, represented both the seller and Hampshire Partners Fund VI in the transaction.

Feinstein, Executive Vice President of The Hampshire Companies. “This high-visibility property in an area that is experiencing strong retail and commercial growth should represent a solid investment for our Fund.”
