Medford, MA According to Combined Properties, Inc., Garvin Construction Products, Inc. has signed a 27,156 s/f lease at 300 Mystic Ave. In doing so, Garvin Construction Products has secured the entirety of this strategically located industrial property.

Acquired by Combined Properties in 2019 and most recently occupied by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, 300 Mystic Ave. provides Garvin with a dynamic brick-and-mortar supply chain solution. The property is situated at the intersection of I-93 and Rte. 16. The property is five minutes north of Boston, Cambridge and Logan International Airport.
