Hong Kong Investor Buys Columbia Center for $700M
Beacon Capital Partners purchased Columbia Center for $621M in 2007, a then record-setting price for a single Seattle office building. Reports have emerged that they may be looking to cash out on Seattle’s tallest tower. Now Hong Kong-based property investment firm Gaw Capital Partners has agreed to buy the building for more than $700M, reports Bloomberg Business. Columbia Center has about 1.5M SF and is at 87% occupancy. Both sides declined comment on the potential deal. [BB]
