The Holiday Fenoglio Fowler LP investment sales team was led by HFF's Jim Meisel, Dek Potts and Andrew Pulliam, who marketed the property on behalf of the Artery Group. It was purchased free of debt.

"It's a premier location in an extremely good suburban submarket," Meisel tells GlobeSt.com. JBG, along with Federal Realty, has plans to develop a mixed-use complex in the neighborhood called Woodmont East. The purchase of Artery Plaza, he says, is expected to help facilitate its plans.
This development--still in the planning stages--includes hotel, retail space, office and residential units, and was first met with successful opposition from local civic groups. The two companies presented changes to their original concept at a public forum in Bethesda this month that were more favorably received. A larger public use space brought forward to street and a larger setback for the hotel were among the changes, as was a smaller connector between the hotel and residential space.
