25 Commerce Way is a 169,000 s/f single-story industrial asset, situated on 18.55 acres, that was 99% leased to seven tenants at the time of sale. Completely renovated in 2001, 25 Commerce offers a mix of space including: warehouse areas with 25’ clear heights, good column spacing and ample loading docks; high quality finished office space; and air-conditioned R&D and lab space. Located off Rte. 125, the asset benefits from its access to I-495 and its proximity to Boston. 

“We are thrilled to establish a strategic relationship between AEGON and California-based Berkeley as Berkeley looks to grow its Boston-area portfolio,” said Coppola. 

Welch said, “AEGON was able to distinguish itself by tailoring a structure to the investment vehicle’s business plan while locking in an exceptionally attractive rate for the duration of the planned investment horizon.”
