Newmark Knight Frank Handles Sale of Anaheim Office Building to Leading Healthcare Provider AltaMed Health Services

NEWPORT BEACH, California, Dec. 17 -- Newmark Knight Frank (formerly the Newmark Grubb Knight Frank), a division of BGC Partners, issued the following news release:

Newmark Knight Frank (NKF) has completed the purchase of a 90,533-square-foot three-story office tower located at 1325 N. Anaheim Blvd. in Anaheim on behalf of AltaMed Health Services, Southern California's leading nonprofit health care system, delivering care to more than 300,000 residents across LA and Orange counties.

AltaMed will bring multiple service programs to the facility as part of an overall strategic expansion in North Orange County. Plans for the facility, which will be converted from office to medical office uses, include urgent care, medical, dental, pharmacy, senior care, as well as administrative offices.

NKF Executive Managing Director David Kluth, Senior Managing Director Justin Hodgdon, Managing Director John E. Scruggs and Associate Mai Hu represented the buyer and tenant, AltaMed, in the transaction with seller, North Anaheim Office LP. CKE Restaurants was represented by CBRE Senior Vice Presidents Dean Chandler and Rick Warner.

The building was previously occupied by CKE Restaurants for its corporate headquarters. AltaMed will sublease the entire building from CKE for approximately five years.

"This was a highly unique transaction in that we were able to both complete a sublease and purchase for AltaMed, who looks to build upon its expansion of services in Orange County," said Hodgdon.

"This is especially good news since AltaMed immediately takes the place of CKE who announced a relocation of their operations out of state. For Anaheim and the surrounding area, the expansion of AltaMed helps to bring jobs back to the community," noted Kluth.

"We've been serving the people of Orange County for the past ten years, but the need for access to more affordable quality health care continues to grow," said Castulo de la Rocha, President and CEO at AltaMed Health Services. "This facility will improve access to a wide range of clinical services, create new career opportunities and expand AltaMed's presence in north Orange County."
