Hackman Capital and Calare Properties, Inc. said that Radant Technologies, Inc., has signed a lease to occupy 58,852 s/f at 100 Adams Rd. David and James Stubblebine and Alan Ringuette of The Stubblebine Company represented the tenant in lease negotiations. They also are the listing agents for the property. "The combination of the facility's 32-foot ceiling heights, abundant loading capacity, and existing office space made 100 Adams Rd. the ideal choice for Radant," said Ringuette, who worked closely with Radant for more than two years while the company was developing this new business. Radant specializes in the design, manufacturing and testing if radomes, reflectors, and structural composite products for use in high performance airborne, ground based, shipboard and submarine installations.
