Blackstone Looking to Offload Four LA Towers for $1B

Blackstone has put four LA office properties on the market, as it continues to shed assets from its 2007 buyout of Equity Office. The towers total about 1.7M SF of prime space in LA, and the nation's largest real estate private equity firm has brought in Eastdil Secured to handle marketing the portfolio, which could fetch more than $1B.
