We are also very excited that our extensive renovation program is now complete, thanks to the excellent work of Merritt Construction. We've received tremendous feedback from our tenants on these improvements. Our partnership with Cushman & Wakefield brokerage team has been equally productive, as this is the second major tenant that we've signed since we began working with the firm within the last 12 months." "This is the ideal location for Advanced Specialty Care's expansion," said Richard Lipton, MD, and CEO of the practice. "The parking ratio, combined with the buildings access to major highways and public transportation, will make it extremely convenient for our patients to access the full scope of medical care that our practice provides."
