Legatt McCall Properties will buy the former Middlesex Courthouse in East Cambridge and turn it into an office and retail complex, state officials said Friday.
The Boston development company submitted the highest bid of three to redevelop the 22-story building, said officials with the state Division of Capital Asset Management. A price was not disclosed, as the parties have yet to negotiate a purchase-and-sale agreement.

It's a seriously ugly building and it's completely incompatible with the neighborhood. It would be best for the city and for East Cambridge if the building was demolished and replaced with something more appropriate.
