The Current, the large mixed-use development from Lynx Ventures nearing completion in Manchester, has hooked its first big office tenant by way of the suburbs.
West Creek Financial will occupy the top three floors of the $68 million development at 400 Hull St. The company, which provides lease-to-own financing for retailers, will fill just under 35,000 square feet, accounting for about half of The Current’s available 70,000 square feet of office space.
Founded in 2014, West Creek has been one of the region’s fastest-growing companies in recent years, fueled in part by millions in venture capital. The company will leave its current office at 4951 Lake Brook Drive in Innsbrook.
The 28,800-square-foot property at 135 West Dudley Road was sold earlier this month, town records show.
The buyer was JAC Realty Partners LLC, which is controlled by Anne and James Carroll, who owns JP Carroll Roofing in West Hartford.
Carroll plans to relocate his business to the new facility.
The seller was 135 West Dudley Street Associates LLC, which is controlled by Scott Shoham.
JP Carroll Roofing is currently located on Newington Road in West Hartford.
The Bloomfield property was built in 1986 and sits on 3.58 acres.
Sentry Commercial represented the seller and Evan Berman of Broder Commercial represented the buyer.

With a major project nearing completion nearby and plenty of other activity in the vicinity, a large untouched plot in Manchester is being prepped for eventual redevelopment.
Thalhimer Realty Partners is seeking to rezone the 2.2-acre plot at 423 Hull St. from its current B-5 Central Business District designation to TOD-1 Transit-Oriented Nodal District, a relatively new zoning type that allows for mixed-use projects up to 12 stories.
TRP, the development arm of local commercial brokerage giant Thalhimer, bought the parcel as part of a $9 million deal in 2013 that kicked off its redevelopment of the former Reynolds South plant. The site is adjacent to the residential part of the project, City View Lofts, as well as Lynx Ventures’ office, retail and residential project The Current.
