Eight parcels of contiguous land, totaling more than 100 acres in an industrial area of Suffield, have sold for $45 million.
Suffield 1120 Harvey Lane LLC, an affiliate of Keene, N.H.-based C&S Wholesale Grocers Inc., sold eight properties to Boston-based Harvey Lane Property Owner LLC for $45 million in a deal recorded Sept. 16.
Harvey Lane Property Owner principal Steven Goodman is founder of GFI Partners, a development, investment, and real estate firm in Boston.
Goodman could not be reached for comment.
Town officials said currently there are no land-use applications filed with any departments for development of that land.
According to town property records, some parcels are vacant land, and three have warehouses; one at 300,000 square feet, one at 243,000 square feet and one at 93,300 square feet.
The sale price includes $10 million for the vacant land and $35 million for the remainder, according to the town records.
In January, C&S Wholesale notified the Department of Labor of its intention to lay off more than 150 workers and permanently close the distribution facility at 1120 Harvey Lane.
