About half the space in a 256,000-square-foot warehouse-distribution center in South Windsor is available for lease, with the entire facility available for purchase at $6.95 million, brokers say.
Built in 1970 and refurbished in 1987, the industrial facility at 1640 John Fitch Blvd. is on 12.07 acres, according to listing broker Sentry Commercial. It has 132,000 square feet available for lease.
It has 32 interior docks, parking for 100 vehicles, 15,000 square feet of office space, and rail service.
Asking rent is $2.95 a foot triple-net.
J&J's Tri-State Delivery Service Inc. occupies almost half the building.
Ex-Rogers Sash space listed
The former 64,000-square-foot Newington home of Rogers Sash & Door Co. is available for lease, the listing broker says.
At the 6.85-acre site at 385 Stamm Road, there is 41,600 square feet of high-bay industrial space for lease at $5.75 a square foot triple-net, according to broker Reno Properties Group LLC.
Built in 1974, the facility also has available 8,000 square feet of showroom space at $8 a foot triple-net. There are 10 high-loading docks with overhead doors.
Farmington family-run lumberyard Sanford & Hawley acquired Rogers Sash and announced last March that the Newington headquarters-showroom would close at the end of that month.
MicroCare's N. Britain expansion
Medical-equipment cleaner-distributor MicroCare Corp. has leased a New Britain flex building, its second footprint expansion in the Hartford region in the past month.
MicroCare leased the 37-year-old, 14,600-square-foot building on 2.1 acres at 80 Production Court to expand manufacturing of its cleaning-sterilization products, according to tenant broker Sentry Commercial.
MicroCare has a chemical plant at 595 John Downey Drive, and administrative-engineering operations at 155 John Downey Drive.
Rocky Hill broker O,R&L Commercial represented landlord Knaus Properties LLC in the lease.
In September, MicroCare announced it nearly doubled to 52,600 square feet its footprint in leased industrial space at 1022 Elm St. in Rocky Hill. The company originally occupied the building in January.
S. Windsor Panera due
Newington franchisee Howley Bread Group says it will open in mid-November its newest Panera Bread cafe in The Promenade Shops at Evergreen Walk in South Windsor.
The 4,120-square-foot store will have indoor-outdoor seating for 106 and employ some 60 full- and part-time workers.
Howley has 16 Panera Bread cafes in Connecticut, with the South Windsor location the 17th. It also has 12 more cafes in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
$5.5M S. Windsor listing
A 69,450-square-foot South Windsor flex office building that is home to Cardinal Health is for sale with a $5.5 million asking price, the listing broker says.
The building on 5.88 acres at 571 Nutmeg Road North was erected in 1985 and refurbished five years later, according to Sentry Commercial. Its primary use is as industrial space, with manufacturing a secondary use.
Of its square footage, 5,722 square feet is office space.
The building is fully leased to Cardinal Health 200 LLC.
Tyler English Fitness space
Tyler English Fitness has leased 6,000 square feet in a Newington shopping plaza, the lease broker says.
Tyler's lease in Best Market Plaza, 161-169 Lowrey Place, brings the retail center's occupancy to around 90 percent, said lease broker Reno Properties Group LLC.
Other tenants include Best Market, U.S. Postal Service, Damato Chiropractic Health & Wellness, Farmers Insurance, CT Kenpo Karate, Newington Liquor and Garrett's Barber Shop.
Lowrey Place Realty is landlord.
