Burlington, MA Avison Young completed the sale of 128 Corporate Center, a 107,427 s/f office building located at 70 Blanchard Rd. Avison Young principals Michael Smith and Scott Jamieson, along with Brandon Dickason and Derek Opert, a vice-president and financial analyst, respectively, in the Boston office, represented the seller, E&F Realty Associates LP, in the strategic marketing and sale of the building. In conjunction with the sale, Mark Coelho, a vice-president and suburban market expert in Avison Young’s Boston office, provided leasing guidance.
