Investor purchases Herndon Metro Plaza I & II in Washington, D.C. metro

WASHINGTON, D.C., August 16, 2022 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has completed the sale of and arranged acquisition financing for Herndon Metro Plaza I & II, a two-building, Class A office complex totaling 204,029 square feet in Herndon, Virginia.

JLL exclusively represented the seller and procured the buyer in the sale of the property. In addition, JLL worked on behalf of buyer to secure a fixed-rate loan through Tristate Capital Bank.

Herndon Metro Plaza I & II is situated on a 6.5-acre site at 196 and 198 Van Buren St., approximately 22 miles from downtown Washington, D.C. The properties have a prominent location visible from the Dulles Toll Road, which offers regional vehicular accessibility as well as connections to Dulles International Airport. In addition, the office complex is immediately adjacent to the new Herndon Metrorail Station offering Silver Line access throughout the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

Collectively, the two properties are 53% leased to seven tenants with three years of weighted average lease term (WALT) remaining. The buildings feature 26,700-square-foot floorplates and offer in-demand amenities, including underground parking and a brand-new tenant lounge and conference center.

The JLL Capital Markets Investment Sales Advisory team representing the owner was led by Matt Nicholson, Dave Baker, Andrew Weir, Jim Meisel and Kevin Byrd.

“Herndon is a rapidly transforming submarket with numerous mixed-use developments in the permitting or planning stages,” Nicholson said. “Herndon Metro Plaza presented a tremendous opportunity for an investor to capitalize on this surrounding momentum, as well as the soon-to-open Herndon Metrorail Station immediately adjacent to the complex.”

The JLL Capital Markets Debt Advisory team representing the buyer was led by Drake Greer and Dan McIntyre.
