Riverstone Properties acquires The James Center for $108 million

January 23, 2017

Call it hometown pride combined with the opportunity to buy an iconic office complex at a good price in a prime location. Those were the makings of a deal Riverstone Properties couldnโ€™t pass up.

The real estate arm of Bill Goodwinโ€™s Riverstone Group announced Thursday that it had acquired the 1-million-square-foot James Center complex in downtown Richmond for $108 million.

Goodwin is one of Richmondโ€™s best-known businessmen and philanthropists, and Riverstone has a reputation for restoring properties to their former grandeur.ย  Millions in renovations are planned for the three office towers on East Cary Street, said Jeff Galanti, a principal with Riverstone Properties. โ€œWhen we say Class A, we mean Jefferson Hotel Class A,โ€ he said, referring to one of Richmondโ€™s premier hotels.
