Commenting on the acquisition, Michael Escalante, Griffin Capital's Chief Investment Officer and President of the REIT, said, "The IGT asset meets the REIT's criteria of investing in business essential, institutional-quality properties leased to corporate tenants with healthy credit dynamics on a long-term basis. Given those characteristics, this acquisition is an excellent addition to our REIT's portfolio and we are pleased to welcome this market leader in the gaming machine industry to our roster of tenants."
According to Susan Borst of the Colliers’ team, "The sale of the IGT building was a great opportunity for all parties involved. Griffin Capital made a great strategic move by acquiring this trophy asset, particularly given its premier location and high-image tenant in IGT."
