Putting their money where their mouth is, Boston Global Investors is moving to the Seaport.  They will be moving to Block H along Seaport Boulevard once construction is complete on their 6,00 square foot parcel.

From the BBJ:

Boston Global Investors will move its headquarters from its current office at 1 Post Office Square in Boston’s Financial District to the Seaport…The firm last week spent $2.21 million to buy a 6,000-square-foot parcel at Seaport Square’s Block H, located along Seaport Boulevard…a four-story office is under construction at the site, and Hynes said Boston Global Investors will relocate there when construction is finished.

With the final parcels trading hands last week, Seaport Square’s 23 acres have officially sold for $665.2 million since 2011. The parcels were originally acquired in 2006, in a deal spearheaded by Hynes with financing from Morgan Stanley, for $203.75 million.

0 Boston Office Rents Among Country’s Most Expensive

Boston Rents continue its upward push with four office markets leading that charge: Back Bay, East Cambridge, Financial District and Seaport.  The Class A market within Back Bay is clearly leading the way, while some value still exists within the Class B market.  A real driver in the increased rents is the cost of tenant improvement dollars going from shell space to fix up space.  Not uncommon to see those numbers north of $75 per square foot.
