William Atkins, chief executive officer of AmeriVest, notes the buildings are 100% leased and in 1999, the year they were built, they received the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties' Denver Small Office Development of the Year Award.
"The addition of these award-winning small tenant buildings significantly increases the quality of AmeriVest's real estate portfolio,'' Atkins says. ''Not only will these buildings be the newest in our portfolio, they represent the state-of-the-art in high quality workplaces for small to mid-size tenants. These buildings are the prototype for our future value-added redevelopment projects."
