Citigroup has completed its purchase of one of its two office buildings at the CrossPoint Business Park in Getzville, cementing its presence in Western New York with a $52.8 million investment.
The New York City-based banking company – the nation’s third-largest – acquired 580 and 562 CrossPoint Parkway from affiliates of Uniland Development Co.
The deal – which was announced in October – also included nine acres of adjacent land at 3750 and 3800 Millersport Highway and 2360 Hopkins Road.
The 158,000-square-foot building houses parts of Citi’s Global Transaction Services group and other functions. It was built in 2008 on 2.2 acres, but Uniland later built a second building at 540 CrossPoint Parkway for Citi’s expanding operations. Uniland still owns that, but the bank also agreed to extend its lease on that 107,000-square-foot building.
In all, Citi has 1,800 employees at CrossPoint, where it is one of the dominant tenants, along with Geico, Columbus McKinnon Corp. and Centene Corp.’s Fidelis Care.
