Metis Holdings LLC has bought a 36,000-square-foot office building in Roanoke for $2.88 million.
Poe & Cronk Real Estate Group said the four-story, Class A building at 1315 Franklin Road had housed the Roanoke offices of the Los Angeles-based engineering design firm AECOM.
AECOM has consolidated its local operations at the Wells Fargo building in downtown Roanoke.
The structure, which sits on 1.7 acres, originally was built as the corporate headquarters of the architecture and engineering firm Hayes, Seay, Mattern and Mattern (HSMM), which merged with AECOM in 2007.
Bryan Musselwhite and Dennis Cronk of Poe & Cronk represented the seller in the deal, a group related to the former owners of HSMM.
