Soggu to buy 16,000 s/f Ash St. School; Silver Tech named tenant

SilverTech, Inc., will relocate to the historic Ash St. School building located at 196 Bridge St. Soggu, LLC has signed a purchase and sale agreement with the city, and will lease a portion of the building to SilverTech. The property, listed in the city's historic registry and formerly a city elementary school, will become SilverTech's new company headquarters after significant renovation and restoration projects are completed. The company plans to move into the new space in April of 2008. The 16,000 s/f property is on 1.32 acres. Plans for the new site include restoration projects that will bring back the historic character such as the addition of greenery, landscaping and walkways around the building that will replicate original designs of the former school era. Interior updates will preserve the integrity of the existing architecture but will also include outfitting the space with high-tech infrastructure that will provide the framework for a collaborative and creative working environment.
