Nutter Represents The Gove Company, Inc. in $40 Million Sale of Newbury Street Parking Lot
Print PDFBoston – Nutter represented The Gove Company, Inc. in its sale of a parking lot on Newbury Street in Boston to L3 Capital, a Chicago-based investment firm. The total value of the transaction was $40 million. Phil Rosenblatt, past chair of Nutter’s Corporate and Transactions Department and co-chair of the firm’s Commercial and Real Estate Finance group, led the legal team, which included Beth Mitchell, Michael Mooney, Jessica Alfano Powell, Kevin Meuse, and David Libardoni.
The Gove Company is owned by shareholders who were members of a family that owned the property for generations. Nutter served as corporate counsel to the company and advised a number of family members in the transaction.
