The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by Managing Director Ben Geelan, Senior Director Will Mast and Managing Director Brian Ackerman.
“The Alexander and The Johnathan are two of the most coveted office buildings in Metro Phoenix evidenced by the recent wave of leasing momentum at the property,” Geelan said. “Tenants today desire modernized buildings with a health and wellness focus and best-in-class amenities, which is exactly what George Oliver’s repositioning of the two properties brought to the market.”
