The property has two 18-story office towers and a retail podium, and the buildings can be sold individually or as a portfolio, according to the coverage.

The office portion accounts for about 511,286 square feet of the complex, with 289,549 square feet of retail alongside it. Retail is roughly 36 percent of the space.
