PHOENIX–Buchanan Street Partners, an active buyer of value-add office and industrial real estate, has purchased a 446,000-square-foot portfolio from Carlson Real Estate Company for $52.6 million, or $118 per square-foot. The 10-building portfolio was acquired in four separate sale transactions and includes a mix of office, industrial, office flex and retail properties.
