We also cover Amazon’s $700 million land purchase for future data centers and Marriott’s decision to end its licensing agreement with Sonder. In property stories, we discuss three multifamily sales, highlight a Blackstone industrial portfolio SASB deal coming to market, and review the Mall of America loan extension. Tune in now.
