Remarks: This property was listed for over two years: available to the entire market. T.C.F. was a serious candidate to purchase the property and had it under contract for several months. Subsequently, T.C.F. decided against the purchase, thus making it available to A.G.A. Medical. Qwest maintains a wireless antenna on the roof of the building and will pay A.G.A. approximately $750/month, with escalations over a term which could extend for up to 19 years. A.G.A. can require Qwest to move the antenna, at any time, if it interferes with their use of the property.
