In 2019, Nordblom Company purchased 60 Blanchard Road, a single-story 50,300 square-foot building with premium frontage along Route 128. Formerly home to DataCon, Nordblom redeveloped the building using its existing footprint, and repositioned it as a Life Science destination.

In summer 2021, Azzur Group—a leading solution provider dedicated to helping life science innovators start, scale and sustain their GxP organizations—occupied the entire space. With over 25,000 square feet of cGMP-compliant space and related services designed to accelerate early-phase manufacturing capabilities, 60 Blanchard Road serves as Azzur Group’s largest Cleanrooms on DemandTM facility.

This landmark corporate headquarters building overlooking Route 128 had been home to OSRAM/Sylvania for more than 30 years. Nordblom closed on this building and simultaneously leased-back 156,500 SF to the seller. As part of this transaction, Nordblom committed to the complete reconstruction of all OSRAM tenant areas, and the replacement of the base building MEP systems. This multi-phased project was managed with more than 600 OSRAM employees on site. Nordblom then repositioned the asset for multi-tenant occupancy, ultimately re-zoned for medical use, and sold to Partners Healthcare with Nordblom continuing to manage this property.

This former distribution center was redeveloped into Class-A office space with creative plans that included the insertion of an interstitial floor in the warehouse area. Nordblom then introduced the property to market and leased it as multi-tenanted office space. The building’s main corporate user, American Tower Corporation, was admitted as an investment partner before becoming the new owner. Nordblom Management Company continues to provide full-service management, including accounting, client relations, leasing administration, and operations.

This project involved the re-assemblage of a former Digital Equipment Corp. campus from two different institutional owners. The property included several development sites on which a build-to-suit was constructed for Duke Energy and a second multi-tenanted office building erected as well. The property was successfully re-branded with the name change to Solomon Pond Park and integrated with surrounding amenities such as the Solomon Pond Mall as part of the overall workplace environment. The marketing plan ties the entire community of properties and amenities together as one destination with initiatives including new graphics, extensive jogging/walking trails, cafeteria, exercise room, day care center and more.
