Boston, MA Barkan Management Company, an industry leader in property management with 192 properties under management in seven states, has secured a management contract for a mixed-use condominium located on the Roxbury-Jamaica Plain border. Barkan is providing a full spectrum of management services to 1785 Columbus Condominium Trust, a seven story, 133,223 s/f commercial condominium.

The organization will occupy several floors of the new building, with a move-in date of early to mid 2021.
