Blackstone Group LP plans to buy about $136.2 million of Dublin office space as Ireland recovers from Western Europe’s worst property crash, two people with knowledge of the matter said.
Blackstone is set to purchase three buildings from Ireland’s National Asset Management Agency in Dublin, said the people, who asked not to be named as the deal isn’t complete. Separately, Google Inc. is the top bidder to buy the 96,500-square-foot Grand Mill Quay property in the Irish capital for as much as $81.8 million from the agency, one of the people said.
