Tri-state briefs: Eastdil Secured markets Blue Back Square

Blue Black Square

From the October issue: 

West Hartford’s upscale Blue Back Square complex is up for sale, according to the Hartford Courant. The 460,000-square-foot development, which houses offices, apartments and some 32 retail stores, opened in late 2007. The principal owner of Blue Back Square, Ronus Properties, is looking to unload its entire U.S. real estate portfolio, Rick Langhorne, the president of Atlanta-based Ronus, told the Courant. Ronus has retained Eastdil Secured to market Blue Back Square and its other holdings.

Langhorne said the property has generated interest, but an asking price has not yet been set. Blue Back Square has a controversial history. [more]
