Accordia, a full-service commercial real estate investment, development and management firm headquartered in Fairfield, New Jersey, announced two lease transactions totaling 14,300 rentable square feet at River Drive Center II, located at 669 River Drive in Elmwood Park, New Jersey.
The transactions include an 8,800-square-foot, five-year lease renewal with Ultra Standard and a new 5,500-square-foot, 10-year lease with Peace Islands Institute.
Ultra Standard is an established distributor of multicultural beauty and personal care products, supplying major national retailers and independent beauty supply stores. Peace Islands Institute is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting education, cultural understanding and community engagement through programs that encourage dialogue and collaboration among diverse communities.
Michael Tesser of Colliers represented Ultra Standard in its renewal, while Jay Tatar of Realty ONE Group Legend represented Peace Islands Institute in its new lease. Accordia represented the landlord in both transactions.
"Retaining established tenants while attracting new organizations is essential to maintaining a successful commercial property," said Frank D. Recine, Principal of Accordia. "These agreements demonstrate the continued appeal of River Drive Center II and reinforce our commitment to building lasting tenant relationships."
River Drive Center II was constructed as part of the River Drive Office campus in Elmwood Park, a three-building complex comprising approximately 300,000 square feet of office and medical space. The property features a four-story atrium, landscaped grounds, modernized common areas and upgraded building infrastructure.
Located just off Interstate 80, the campus provides convenient access to Routes 20, 21 and 46, the Garden State Parkway and major employment centers throughout Northern New Jersey and New York City.
"Our approach has always been to look beyond individual transactions and focus on the long-term performance of our properties. These leases are a great example of how our team combines market knowledge and relationships, personal attention and proactive management to deliver results," said Recine.
