Newmark arranged the transaction with a team led by Dustin Stolly and Jordan Roeschlaub alongside Nick Scribani, Chris Kramer, Issa Abbassi and Jake Neeb.

Boston-based CCM first purchased 75 Morrissey in 2017 and then expanded its development plans with the acquisition of an adjacent 6.42 acres at 35-55 Morrissey comprising 279,799 square feet. This includes a 100 percent-leased, 61,800-square-foot retail building occupied by Shaw’s Supermarket and a 42,192-square-foot Class B office building that is fully occupied by Beasley Media Group

The 75 Morrissey site encompasses 2.24 acres that includes a fully vacant, 27,600-square-foot Class B office building. The 700,000-square-foot former Boston Globe headquarters adjacent to the property at 135 Morrissey Avenue has been approved for life sciences use. 

Officials for Related and CCM did not immediately return requests for comment. Newmark declined to comment.
