Vineyard Vines Stamford Headquarters Sold For $33.5 Million

STAMFORD, CT — The waterfront property at 181 Harbor Drive, currently leased to Vineyard Vines as the retailer's world headquarters, has been sold for $33.5 million. The sale was announced by real estate investment firm Rubenstein Partners, L.P., in partnership with George Comfort & Sons.

The property was purchased by a joint venture between The Melohn Group and Drake Street Partners, according to a statement from Rubenstein Partners.

The 91,040 square-foot office building is newly renovated and located within the six-building, Shippan Landing waterfront office campus. Affiliates of Rubenstein Partners and George Comfort and Sons will continue to own the remaining five buildings within the campus, where they are in progress on a $40 million "capital improvement campaign that will deliver new lobbies, building systems, outdoor collaborative space and a waterfront amenity center."

Jeffrey Dunne, Steven Bardsley and Travis Langer of CBRE's Institutional Properties Group represented the seller and procured the buyers for this transaction.

According to the Stamford Advocate, Vineyard Vines is currently the property's sole tenant, and the company will remain at the Shippan Landing location.

The Shippan Landing campus offers a number of amenities, such as a full-service fitness center, marina, beer garden and a 275-seat cafeteria with outdoor dining, as well as volleyball, basketball and bocce courts.
