Universal Music-Leased Santa Monica Offices Trade for Reported $185M
Drawbridge Realty has acquired 2220 Colorado Ave., a 225,773-square-foot headquarters building in Santa Monica’s Silicon Beach neighborhood, for a reported $185 million. The building is 100% triple-net leased to Universal Music Group (UMG) as its operational headquarters.
“This is a high-quality property with a strong, longtime tenant and a very creative build-out that establishes the building as one of the signature assets in Santa Monica,” said Jaden Rosselli, VP of investments & asset management, Drawbridge Realty. “It’s a wonderful addition to our national portfolio.”
The seller, Clarion Partners, was represented by Newmark’s Kevin Shannon, Alex Foshay, Ken White, Rob Hannan, Laura Stumm and Michael Moll. UMG recently signed a long-term lease extension at the property.
Also known as Arboretum Gateway, 2220 Colorado Ave. has two UMG-operated recording studios, several conference facilities, secure parking with direct elevator access, an onsite food commissary and coffee bar, collaboration areas and outdoor decks.
