Owner John Haroutunian of Burlington Machine said, "We are excited to join Cummings Properties. A current Cummings Properties client recommended its affordable rates and great customer service. Combine those with the location, and we knew we had the perfect place for us to conduct our growing business." Steve Costa, a Cummings Properties leasing/property manager was the representative for the lease negotiation. "The building itself has great curb appeal featuring an upgraded facade, complete with new entries and operable windows," he said. "With superb highway access and ample free parking, this is a great area for many businesses," said Costa Cummings Properties reportedly performed the design and construction with its own employees extremely quickly.
