Hines, O’Leary and McNamara of C&W handle 77,000 s/f in subleases

Waltham, MA According to Cushman & Wakefield, Digital Guardian and ServiceNow have both signed sublease agreements for a combined total of 77,000 s/f at 275 Wyman St. The site currently serves as a North American office for Cimpress, the world leader in mass customization, and its well-known brand Vistaprint.

Digital Guardian was represented in its 44,000 s/f sublease by Keith Gurtler of Avison Young, while ServiceNow was represented in its 33,000 s/f sublease by Jim Abarta and Bill Lynch of Colliers International. Cimpress was represented in both transactions by Brian Hines, Michael O’Leary and Kevin McNamara of Cushman & Wakefield.

275 Wyman St. is a five-story building constructed in 2015 and consists of 300,000 s/f of class A office space. The building is owned by Hobbs Brook Management, was designed by Margulies Perruzzi Architects and was built by Commodore Builders.

“High quality buildings in Waltham continue to experience solid success, and we expect it to remain that way,” said Hines, vice chair at Cushman & Wakefield. “This is not only a great space in a much sought after building, but it’s also in a location with a lot of top-notch amenities with easy access to the highway and Boston.”

The building features a full-service cafeteria, a landscaped courtyard, a 1,025-car parking garage, and is located within a campus setting in the Hobbs Brook Park.

It was designed using a unitized metal and glass curtain wall system for the building’s envelope, providing high thermal efficiency and allowing daylight to filter deep into the building’s interior. Internal building features include impromptu meeting spaces on each floor to encourage collaboration, a game room, mothering rooms, and a cutting-edge fitness center that includes a room outfitted for spin classes. A library was designed to accommodate silent work space for Cimpress and Vistaprint team members, outside of the collaborative environment.

The building is adjacent to Interstate 95 and conveniently located 12 miles from Boston.

“We moved back to Waltham in 2015 and have enjoyed not only our state-of-the art campus, but also the vibrant local community,” said Albert Plans of Cimpress. “We are delighted to share our space with Digital Guardian and ServiceNow and hope they find 275 Wyman a place to grow and call home, like we did.”

Cushman & Wakefield’s Boston office provides a complete suite of commercial real estate services for the entire life cycle of properties and portfolios.

Ask the Electrician: How do I prepare my commercial building for a disaster?

New England’s notorious weather – from fierce winter storms to summer squalls and fall hurricanes – can leave businesses in the dark. While power outages are often blamed on storms, they can also be caused by unforeseen events like accidents or construction mishaps. While it’s impossible to prevent disasters and power outages entirely, proactive preparation can significantly minimize their impact on your commercial building.

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.
