MAYNARD, MASS. — Mesa West Capital has provided Artemis Saracen Investments, a joint venture between Saracen Properties and Artemis Real Estate Partners, with $40.8 million in first mortgage financing to reposition a 1 million-square-foot office campus in Maynard. Loan proceeds will be used to implement an extensive capital improvement and leasing plan that will reposition the property to appeal to a wide variety of users. Formerly known as Clock Tower Place, the newly rebranded Mill & Main is a mixed-use development located 25 miles west of Boston. Planned improvements to the property include updated building systems, pedestrian plazas, a waterfront boardwalk, fitness facilities, boutique retail and gallery venues. Situated on 50 acres, the property includes 12 vintage brick-and-beam-style buildings overlooking a 14-acre mill pond. Constructed in 1847, the site originally served as a woolen mill until 1950 when it was converted to an office park. The property is currently 37 percent leased, including a recently signed lease with Stratus Technologies for 102,000 square feet, which is slated to open this spring. Jay Marshall of HFF arranged the financing.
