The Atlanta holdings include:


  • 2500 Windy Ridge, a 316k SF office building fully leased by Coca-Cola Refreshments through 2018.


  • 4100 and 4300 Wildwood Pkwy, 250k SF office building leased mainly by BlueLinx through 2019.


  • 4200 Wildwood Pkwy, a 265k SF property fully leased by GE though 2025.

Other properties in the portfolio sale include One MacArthur Ridge (Dallas) and Chase Center and Sterling Commerce Center I-IV (Columbus, Ohio). Columbia officials--whose firm changed its name and split from Wells' leadership last year--tout these as Class-A, stabilized properties.
