Manchester, NH According to Cushman & Wakefield, the New Hampshire Commercial Industrial Board of Realtors (CIBOR) has recognized the firm with three distinguished transaction awards for 2015.

The New Hampshire Cushman & Wakefield team was awarded Industrial Lease of the Year for representing SolarCity in its lease of 468 Pepsi Rd. in Manchester, NH; Office Lease of the Year for its representation of Timberland in its leasing of 100 Main St., the Cocheco Mills in Dover, NH; and Office Sale of the Year for representing REIT and RREEF Property Trust in the sale of two five-building, portfolios spanning across Concord, Nashua, Manchester and Hudson, NH.

SolarCity, one of the country’s number one full-service solar providers, leased 26,000 s/f, making it the state’s biggest industrial lease of 2015. The building offers 4,000 s/f of mezzanine office space that includes private offices, an open area, a conference room and a kitchen.

Timberland, a global leader in the design, manufacture, marketing and distribution of branded lifestyle apparel, footwear and accessories, leased 15,450 s/f. This historic complex of buildings is located in the center of downtown Dover. The mill has become a thriving mixed-use community with the addition of new apartments to the mix of businesses and restaurants.

The Cushman & Wakefield Team was also recognized for two portfolio sales: RREEF Property Trust, a subsidiary of Deutsche Asset Management, sold the five buildings, comprised of 469,700 s/f in Nashua and Hudson, and on behalf of REIT, a 217,000 s/f five-building portfolio with properties in Concord, Nashua and Manchester.
