Cushman & Wakefield’s Adam Spies, Doug Harmon, Adam Doneger and Josh King negotiated the sale. The brokers declined to comment.

One of the building’s largest tenants, the accounting firm Anchin, Block & Anchin, occupies roughly 120,000 square feet on a lease that is rolling over in a few years, which provides an opportunity for the new owner to bring the rent on that space up to market.

It also represents a return to the 27-story building for Savanna. The company sold the property to Westbrook in 2015 for $310 million.

The deal will be the first purchase for Savanna out of its newest real estate fund, its fifth, which the company started raising late last year.
