The 136,283-square-foot 1 Millennium Way in Branchburg, New Jersey serves as the U.S. headquarters for LifeCell, which just signed a new 12-year lease at the building. Simultaneously, the brokerage teams negotiated the acquisition of 4 Millennium Way, a 147,000-square-foot building, for Allergan Sales LLC.
Murray Construction, the landlord and seller of the buildings, was exclusively represented by Newmark’s Vice Chairman and Chief Operating Officer for New Jersey David Simson.
“Our organization is delighted to assist the ownership with the sale of 4 Millennium and stabilization of the long-term lease at 1 Millennium to create value to the entrepreneurial family which owns the Branchburg,” noted Simson.
The tenant and purchaser of the two buildings was represented exclusively by International Director - Broker Lead Dan Loughlin and Vice President Jodie Matthews with JLL’s offices in Parsippany, New Jersey.
Michael Nachtome, chief operating officer of Murray Construction was integral in completing the transaction on behalf of the ownership, in conjunction with Robert Brown, lead attorney at Epstein, Brown & Gioia, LLC. “We are very pleased with LifeCell’s long-term renewal and are excited to welcome Allergan to the park. We look forward to many years working together,” noted Nachtome.
