Conshohocken parcel spanning 3.1 acres sold by O'Neill Properties


Mack-Cali Realty Corp. bought 3.1 acres on the western side of the Fayette Street bridge. The site fronts the Schuylkill River.


O'Neill Properties Group has sold a development parcel in Conshohocken, Pa., to Mack-Cali Realty Corp.


The 3.1-acre parcel at 51 Washington St. is approved for 310 apartments. The site is located on the western side of the Fayette Street bridge or to the left while heading into Conshohocken. The property fronts the Schuylkill River.

Mack-Cali's affiliate, Roseland, intends to begin construction of a multifamily complex on the site during the first quarter of next year, said Ilene Jablonski, a company spokeswoman. Jablonski declined to disclose the purchase price until the company does so through Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The Edison, N.J., company bought the site because it fits within its strategy to take positions in markets that have high barriers of entry and are served by mass transit.

Jeff Mack of Newmark Grubb Knight Frank arranged the transaction.

O'Neill Properties of King of Prussia, Pa., decided to sell the property "to clean up our balance sheet," said Brian O'Neill, who heads up the real estate company. O'Neill received approval from borough officials earlier this year for the development of a 6-story apartment building that would have two levels of parking.
