Transwestern Arranges Long-Term Lease With MN Law Firm

Transwestern Real Estate Services (TRS) announced that Messerli Kramer, a Twin Cities law firm, signed a long-term lease at 50 South Sixth, a 29-story office building in Minneapolis’s Central Business District.

Transwestern Vice President Trinette Wacker and Principal Reed Christianson represented the asset on behalf of the owner, Mapletree Investments. Transwestern also manages the building. Messerli Kramer was represented by brokers David Buyse and Rory Johnson of Corporate Tenant Advisors.

“We’re thrilled to see tenants commit to growing the vibrant energy of downtown Minneapolis,” said Wacker. “It is encouraging to see downtown continue to bounce back, and offer a mix of new business, culture, and community that makes it an incredible place to live, work, and grow.” 50 South Sixth was designed by architect Peter Van Cechten of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill and opened in 2001, making it one of the newest Class A buildings in Minneapolis.
