A piece of the silicon prairie has sold to a Chicago investor.
Dayton Street Partners bought Fujitsu’s 66-acre Richardson campus, the Dallas Morning News reports. The purchase was financed with a $68.6 million loan.
The campus, on Telecom Parkway near the President George Bush Turnpike, encompasses multiple office and industrial buildings that were constructed between the early 1990s and 2000. The 87-year-old Japanese conglomerate has owned the property since 1989.
Its 830,000 square feet are more than five times the size of Dayton Street Partners’ planned 164,640-square-foot speculative facility in Houston’s Cedar Port Industrial Park.
It began as the operations hub for Fujitsu Network Communications and Celestica, an electronics manufacturing services firm under the Fujitsu umbrella. Fujitsu Transaction Solutions Inc, the corporation’s technology solutions arm, moved its North American headquarters to the Richardson campus in 2008.
