Bank of America has sold the Hearst Tower in uptown Charlotte to Parkway Properties Inc. in a $250 million deal, the real estate investment trust announced.
The bank had been marketing the 46-story building since February as it tries to streamline its operations. Bank of America will lease back 322,000 square feet, nearly a third of the Hearst Tower's office space, through March 2022 as part of the deal.
"The pending acquisition of Hearst Tower is a significant positive step as we continue to transform the company," Parkway Properties CEO Jim Heistand said in a statement. "It is a compelling real estate opportunity – a trophy building, with a stable tenant base, in a submarket with improving fundamentals, at an attractive basis."
