Next Step Healthcare signs 10,700 s/f lease at TradeCenter 128

Woburn, MA Next Step Healthcare, which specializes in skilled nursing facilities, will open its first corporate office this month. The company has leased a 10,700 s/f space at Cummings Properties’ TradeCenter 128 business campus.

Next Step Healthcare owns and manages 40 skilled nursing healthcare facilities and several assisted living communities, the majority of which are in Massachusetts. The company was founded in 2007 by Damian Dell’Anno and William Stephan, and operated out of shared office space in Needham prior to the move to the new office. 

Next Step Healthcare’s TradeCenter 128 office will house 40 colleagues across the company’s administration, human resources, finance, legal, and marketing departments. 

“Next Step Healthcare was looking for a first-class office space that also afforded easy highway access,” said senior leasing director Rob Yacobian of Cummings Properties. “TradeCenter 128 fit the bill perfectly, with its outstanding quality and suite of convenient amenities. We’re delighted to welcome them to the Woburn business community.”

“We represent more than 5,500 staff in 38 skilled nursing facilities,” said Janelle Fairbrother, Next Step’s vice president of administration. “A corporate office in Woburn was ideal for us, as it is centrally located in relation to the care centers we manage.”

Opened in 2008, TradeCenter 128 has more than 500,000 s/f of office space on I-95. The business campus is also home to Middlesex County Superior Court, Strega Prime Italian Steakhouse, and numerous businesses in the technology, legal, and life sciences sectors.

Cummings Properties’ portfolio of 11 million s/f of space accommodates offices, healthcare facilities, labs, restaurants, retail storefronts, warehouses, executive suites, and more. 

With a portfolio of this size and variety, the firm can meet almost any commercial real estate need from 150 s/f to 300,000 s/f. Its in-house experts in design, construction, and property management offer “one-stop shopping” for the business community.
