A food company that gobbled up Albertsons’ former distribution facility almost two years ago came back for another helping. An entity affiliated with Steven Roberts Original Desserts bought Albertsons’ former regional headquarters building and two land parcels at Interstate 70 and Tower Road for $1.8 million. The 11,414-squarefoot office building and land are located at the entrance to the 386,000-sf distribution center at 2780 N. Tower Road. “While we have been marketing the office building and land sites since early 2013, it wasn’t until this summer that Steven Roberts appeared to have significant interest,” said Ron Webert of Lee & Associates Denver, who represented A l b e r t s o n s LLC in the transaction. “The two land sites and office building are located at the entrance to their distribution center, and it makes sense for them to control this ground as well,” he said. Steven Roberts Originals plans to occupy the office building and will hold the land sites – 4.86 and 3.05 acres – for future needs, Webert said. The single-story building was constructed in 1983. Tom Myers of Unique Properties LLC-TCN Worldwide represented Steven Roberts Original Desserts in the acquisition. Steven Roberts Originals and subsidiary Ticklebelly Desserts produce desserts sold in restaurants, hotels and grocery stores.
