The garage at Seventh and Broad streets has 12,800 square feet of office and retail space and more than 400 parking spaces, according to BlueCross.

BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee has sold the last of its downtown properties made available when it moved to Cameron Hill.

A parking garage at Broad and Seventh streets was sold to a company associated with Republic Parking Systems chief Jim Berry for $2.5 million, he said Friday.

Berry said that engineering company Mesa Associates Inc. is to lease 175 spaces in the 426-space parking deck, which formerly was known as the Hub Garage.

He said the rest of the garage will be available to the public by the hour, day and month.
