The owner of a Bedminster office complex has hired Colliers International to oversee leasing at the property, as it kicks off a round of improvements focused on new tenant amenities.
Colliers said Tuesday that it was named exclusive leasing agent at 1 and 2 Crossroads Drive, a 150,000-square-foot property off Interstate 287. Richard Mirliss, Alexander Vitro, Jack Callahan and Richard J. Madison, who are based at the real estate services firm’s Parsippany office, are heading the assignment on behalf of Eden Wood Realty.
“This trophy asset always has stood out within the Somerset County office market,” Mirliss said in a prepared statement. “Eden Wood Realty has committed to raising the bar further with a new program of amenities to enhance quality of life for tenants and their employees.”
Planned upgrades include the introduction of a new, full-service cafeteria with glass-enclosed seating and a shared meeting facility with videoconferencing capability at 1 Crossroads Drive, Colliers said in a news release. The property already has a café with an outdoor courtyard and seating and nearby shopping, dining and lodging options.
The Colliers team is marketing three units totaling 58,000 square feet at 1 Crossroads Drive, which is anchored by Merrill Lynch. The firm also touted an opportunity for signage fronting I- 287.
Building 2 is fully occupied by Zelis Healthcare.
“We are seeing a lot of interest right off the bat,” Mirliss said. “Bedminster historically has benefitted from a strong corporate presence — particularly in the life sciences and financial services sectors.
“Its deep white collar labor pool and affluent demographics contribute to the market’s appeal. Current leasing activity validates its continued strength.”
The property, which is also close to Interstate 78 and Route 206, is 30 minutes from Newark Liberty International Airport and less than one hour from New York City.
