The flurry of leasing activity and tenant interest has continued at The Offices At Greens Farms, located 55/57 Greens Farms Rd., since February 2013 when the property was acquired by The Silverman Group. Cushman & Wakefield, the property's exclusive leasing agent, has completed three new lease. Daversa Partners, an executive search firm, leased 10,024 s/f. Synergy Corporate Technologies, an IT services and training provider, leased 5,100 s/f. Broder & Orland, a divorce and family law firm, leased 5,000 s/f. These new leases, added to the three new tenant leases and one renewal previously announced in July 2013, brings the total leasing activity at The Offices At Greens Farms to 57,283 s/f in less than one year.
The Cushman & Wakefield leasing team is comprised of Steve Baker, senior director, Tom O'Leary, senior director and Adam Klimek, director. The tenant representative for Daversa Partners was Penny Wickey, principal of Saugatuck Commercial. Kevin Foley, executive director, and Torey Walsh, director, of Cushman & Wakefield represented Synergy Corporate Technologies; and Broder & Orland was represented by Ken Edwards, vice president of John Hastings Real Estate.
"We are thrilled at the level of leasing that we've had in less than one year of ownership of this beautiful corporate office park," said Toby Nelson, vice president of leasing for The Silverman Group. "We are well on our way to having a great tenant roster. We have completed the renovations at 55 Greens Farms Rd., culminating in the delivery of a wide array of upscale amenities and services. We are transforming The Offices At Greens Farms into a very special work environment and Westport's premier office complex."
In addition to the completion of the capital improvement program at 55 Greens Farms Rd., significant upgrades are planned for 57 Greens Farms Rd. Renovations completed at 55 Greens Farms Rd. include a new café with seating and food service, a fitness center, elevator cabs, signage, shuttle service to the Westport train station and to downtown Westport, a full-building generator (800 KW) and professionally designed landscaping and outdoor lighting. Currently, The Offices At Greens Farms can accommodate tenant requirements from 1,580 s/f to a full building of 60,000 s/f.
"Leasing activity at The Offices At Greens Farms has been extremely strong since the Silverman Group took ownership of the property last February," said Klimek. "Their deal-making ability, combined with the Park's beautiful renovations and its new, full amenity package, has created an environment that is in great demand by tenants. We expect that The Offices At Greens Farms will be fully leased in the near future."
