Milford, MA
Interstate 495, Cedar Street
After researching the detail of this 4.38 Acre land parcel and meeting with the planning director of the town of Milford- Ria determined that the land should be combined with the frontage parcel by another owner in order for the value of the property to be realized.
Coordinating the two Sellers and finding a developer to purchase and develop a 100,000SF Nationally recognized storage facility was the result of a several year process. Multiple waivers were required, and accommodations were made to town committees and boards. The development will start construction in 2024.

The lease strengthened the value of the property and the business attracts many customers, establishing a favorite gathering spot for the neighborhood.
