Franklin Street Properties Corp. (the “Company”, “FSP”, “our” or “we”) (NYSE MKT: FSP), a real estate investment trust (REIT), announced today its sale of an approximately 153,028 square foot office property known as “Eden Bluff Corporate Center I” located at 14800 Charlson Road, Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Gross proceeds from the sale were approximately $28,000,000.

George J. Carter, President and Chief Executive Officer of FSP, commented, “The sale of Eden Bluff Corporate Center I continues FSP’s ongoing strategy of selling non-core assets, when pricing is appropriate. Eden Bluff Corporate Center I is located in greater Minneapolis, which remains a core market to FSP, but as a single-story suburban flex-office building, the property no longer fits our current investment profile. FSP intends to reinvest into larger, urban in-fill and/or CBD office assets over time.”
