Boston Flower Exchange | South End

Saw this article on my Facebook feed.

Thought it was interesting; I'm not sure if there's anywhere in this forum that it should go.

When shareholders in the century-old cooperative put the place up for sale last spring, they got at least five offers, including several from big-name Boston developers, starting at $35 million.

By midsummer, a preliminary deal was in place, according to several watchful neighbors and losing bidders, at a price north of $40 million. That would be a huge sum for a few acres of land. But no one seemed to know who was buying.

And since then? Silence.

While a few big names privately acknowledge they lost the bidding war, they’ve no idea who won.
