Mack-Cali Sells Connecticut Office Property

EDISON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced that it has sold 1000 Bridgeport Avenue in Shelton, Connecticut, for approximately $17 million. The 133,000 square-foot class A office building, which is 93.1% leased, was sold to a partnership of The Praedium Group LLC and Abbey Road Advisors LLC.

Mitchell E. Hersh, Mack-Cali president and chief executive officer, commented, "As we've been seeking and executing on strategic growth opportunities in selected markets, we have been looking to reduce our exposure in non-core markets and submarkets. While 1000 Bridgewater Avenue is an attractive property, it has been our sole asset in the Shelton/Stratford submarket. Accordingly, we are pleased to be able to complete this transaction so that we can redeploy the proceeds elsewhere."

Mark Keeney, partner at Abbey Road Advisors LLC, noted, "We are quite pleased to acquire this institutional asset in a market that continues to see growth as tenants migrate east from the more expensive lower Fairfield county submarkets. We are also pleased to team up with The Praedium Group LLC on this asset and look forward to working with the existing tenants and new tenants during our ownership."

Mack-Cali was represented by Andrew Merin, David Bernhaut, Gary Gabriel and Jose Cruz of Cushman & Wakefield's Metropolitan Area Capital Markets Group.
