Wilmington, DE (March 23, 2015) - Patterson-Woods Commercial Properties/CORFAC International, a leading full-service commercial real estate provider serving the Mid-Atlantic market, today announced the completion of the sale of an office complex located at Barley Mill Plaza in Wilmington, DE. The complex, consisting of 455,000 square feet and spanning 36 acres, is being converted into a Charter school.
Tony Bariglio, Partner at Patterson-Woods, represented the purchaser, Odyssey Charter School, Inc., in this transaction. Bariglio previously represented Odyssey in 2006 in the acquisition of their current Upper School Campus at 201 Bayard Avenue in Wilmington, DE, which he currently has listed for sale.
The Lower School Campus moved to Barley Mill in March of 2014. Eventually, the entire school will migrate to Barley Mill, and in coming years will add grades 8-12, making it a K-12 school.
This transaction was financed through $34 million in bonds issued by the Delaware Economic Development Office (DEDO), an organization whose mission is to enhance industry, tourism, and employment in Delaware. Prior to Odyssey's involvement, the parcel served as an office complex to DuPont, before being sold to Barley Mill, LLC (Stoltz Real Estate Partners, LLC) in 2007.
