vard Ave. for $4 million, or
$54.02 per sf. The three-story
building, with 47 percent occu-
pancy, is situated along the
I-225 Rail Line.
“With the opening of the I-225
Rail Line in 2016, Aurora will
become regionally connected
and our building will be adja-
cent to the Iliff Station and Park-
n-Ride facility, offering great
access to transportation,” said
Sean Sjodin, NexGen’s director
of acquisitions.
“It will be one of only a few
office buildings along that I-225
corridor that will have that fea-
ture,” said Patrick Devereaux of
JLL, who represented the seller,
Rosemont Realty, with JLL’s
Jason Schmidt.
“It’s great upside potential in
a building that faces Interstate
225 and the ownership will
truly benefit from owning an
asset that has walkable access
to the light-rail station,” com-
mented Devereaux.
NexGen Properties will
rebrand the asset, completing
significant renovations to the
interior common areas, replac-
ing the roof and updating inter-
nal building systems. “Over-
all Central Place is a well-built
building with great potential,”
said NexGen Vice President
Travis McNeil.
The third floor of the build-
ing is vacant, offering a rare
contiguous block of space with
“phenomenal” Front Range
mountain views, he said.
“With Central Place becom-
ing one of the most light-rail-
accessible office locations in
Aurora, the third floor oppor-
tunity checks every box for a
corporate user, also offering
top-floor, large-tenant presence,
extensive window line and a
strong identity with highly vis-
ible exterior building signage,”
said Jonathan Jones of Colliers
International, who is marketing
the property for lease.
Central Place, built in 1986,
currently has 14 local and
regional tenants.
