LOS ANGELES — Northwood Investors has purchased 800 Corporate Pointe, a 245,786-square-foot office building in the Los Angeles submarket of Culver City, for $148 million. The Class A building is situated off Slauson Avenue and Bristol Parkway near State Route 90.
The four-story building was developed in 2007. It was 98 percent occupied at the time of sale. The LEED Gold-certified asset houses six tenants within the financial services, media, technology and engineering industries.
The acquisition includes an adjacent six-level parking structure. Nearby retail amenities include Westfield Culver City Mall, Runway at Playa Vista and downtown Culver City.
“800 Corporate Pointe is one of the two newest and one of the best office buildings in this evolving Culver Pointe park,” says Kevin Shannon, president of NKF’s Capital Markets. “Culver City is drafting off the momentum from Playa Vista and is attracting similar-profile tenants seeking cool environments. The property enjoys a strong tenant roster with attractive returns augmented by its ownership of the parking structure for the adjacent building.”
Shannon, along with Ken White, Rob Hannan, Michael Moll and Laura Stumm, represented the seller, Vornado Realty Trust, in this transaction. Northwood, a New York-based real estate investment and management firm, represented itself in this transaction. NKF’s David Milestone and Brett Green arranged the financing on behalf of the buyer.
Northwood Investors maintains more than $11 billion of gross assets across the U.S. and Europe. John Z. Kukral, the former president and CEO of Blackstone Real Estate Advisors, founded the firm in 2006.
