The firm announced Wednesday it bought three Montgomery County office parks totaling 1.3M SF for $149M. The 28-building office portfolio consists of the MetroPark North campus in Rockville and the WestTech and Meadows business parks in Silver Spring.

The properties, previously owned by PS Business Parks, include single-story and multistory office and flex buildings.

MedStar Health, Children's Hospital, Intelligent Automation, Netcom Technologies and the U.S. government are all tenants, spread out among the portfolio.
