Ave. in late 2018. Building attributes such as high ceiling height and proximity to NYC, where its core customer base is located, were the main driv- ers for the move across town. Bussel Realty’s Jordan Metz represented McGinley in the transaction. The remaining 10,000 s/f of the building is leased to the building’s former owner. Elberon will immediately launch an extensive capital improvement program which will include the following: new LED lighting, the removal of interior demising walls, a new HVAC system and new land- scaping, fencing and offices. Elberon acquired 919 Fair- mount in the fall of 2017 as a value-add opportunity. “I think it’s fair to say that our plans to fully modernize the property resulted in a successful leasing campaign,” said Elberon vice president Terry Armstrong . “This property – and these tenants – are a terrific addition to our growing portfolio.”  This is the second lease Colliers facilitated at Col- wick on behalf of Endurance within the last 30 days. Col- liers leased a 5,025 s/f suite to Virtua Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation at 53 Haddonfield Rd. Whether these two transactions in- dicate an upswing in the Cherry Hill office market is yet to be determined, how- ever Cherry Hill has recently performed well with report- ed positive net absorption at Towne Place at Garden State, Commerce Center re- cently trading at ±$150 psf, and PNC leasing a full floor at Woodland Falls.
