The owner of a Bergen County office building has tapped JLL as its leasing agent, offering 50,000 square feet of contiguous space across the property’s top two floors.
The brokerage team said it will lead a rebranding effort that will focus on showcasing the availability at 208 Harristown Road, a 103,349-square-foot office building along Route 208. The agents are marketing the large block on the third and fourth floors as well as move-in ready suites ranging from 9,000 to almost 24,000 square feet.
They’re also seeking tenants for some 10,000 square feet of on- or below-grade space with direct exterior access, which JLL said provides the type of physical structure required by medical office users with large and heavy equipment.
“208 Harristown Road is an iconic office property that presents a highly visible corporate headquarters opportunity,” said Frank Recine, an executive managing director with JLL. “We look forward to introducing the space to tenants seeking high-quality space in a premier Bergen County asset.”
Recine and Senior Vice President Derek DeMartino are leading the assignment on behalf of 208 Glen Rock Associates LLC, noting that Route 208 carries some 70,000 vehicles daily. They added that the location provides easy access to routes 4, 17, 20 and 21, while it’s a 37-minute drive from Newark Liberty International Airport and within an hour of New York City.
The complex sits within a six-acre campus and has a fitness center, a conference room, on-site security, parking and a loading area. Tenants, meantime, are a short drive from Glen Rock’s many local shops and restaurants and minutes from Garden State Plaza.
JLL added that, in the first quarter, nearly 70 percent of leases greater than 10,000 square feet were signed in Class A buildings. Continued merger activity in the medical sector is also driving demand for well-located property that can provide consumers with more accessible care in modern, comfortable locations.
“208 Harristown Road is a premier mixed-use office and medical building with prime visibility, signage and impressive accessibility,” DeMartino said. “The property also offers the kind of high-end, turnkey space that employers are seeking as they adjust to new workplace trends that place a premium on highly amenitized Class A space.”
