STERLING, VA—The Pinkard Group of Bethesda and Buchanan Partners of Gaithersburg have partnered with AEW Capital Management to acquire Lakeside II @ Loudoun Tech Center. It is the second acquisition for this group of partners, which first banned together to acquire Lakeside III @ Loudoun Tech Center from a special servicer last year for $12.4 million.

Pricing was not disclosed for this latest purchase.

In addition Pinkard Group partnered with Principal Real Estate Investors last year to buy Dulles Metro Center for $47.1 million.

Lakeside II is a four-story building located at 21345 Ridgetop Circle. AEW has invested in the property on behalf of AEW Partners VII, L.P., the seventh in the company's opportunistic fund series.

The 102,000-square-foot building is one of three buildings on the 30-acre campus originally developed by a partnership of Buchanan Partners and Tishman Speyer in 2001.

"Lakeside II is one of the last remaining large blocks of A space in the 28 North market," said Bob Pinkard, principal of The Pinkard Group. "Our purchase price allows us to deliver a high quality environment at affordable pricing."

Pinkard was not able to speak with GlobeSt.com prior to publication.

The property was purchased from LNR through the auction.com online platform.
